Pharao Peaks at Toby Creek

Earl Grey Pass Traverse - 6 days

Purcell Wilderness Concervancy
"A Timeless Crossing"
by Mitchell Scott & photographer Dave Glunds
British Columbia Magazine June 2004

The Earl Grey Pass Traverse is a 53 kilometer trek eastward across the Purcell Mountain Range in the southern interior of British Columbia. It starts in the small town of Argenta on Kootenay Lake in the West Kootenays and takes you through the northern part of the pristine & wild Purcell Wilderness Conservancy, one of the few class 1 provincial parks in BC. Along Hamill Creek, low elevation lush old growth cedar forest will be the predominant ecosystem for the first two days, before we reach the alpine slopes of the Earl Grey Pass. Close turquoise-colored ancient masses of ice, like Hamill and Toby Glacier, will be your view while we set up camp on the pass. This area provides an excellent opportunity for outdoor photography, numerous ridge walks or a casual resting day in the alpine. Up here, we experience the change in geology from the Kootenay Arch to the Rocky Mountain terrain with more sedimentary rock formations. Dry forests and meadows characterize these valleys and on day five, we descend into the Toby Creek drainage passing glacier-fed mountain streams and the rugged ridges of Mount Earl Grey.
After four nights of ruffing it in the BC outback, our last night will be spent in comfort wining and dinning at the Panorama Mountain Village.
