Ahmad on Alpaca Peak:
“The trail has three parts: walking on a road, semi bushwhacking following ribbons but no trail, and hiking a ridge which is the most rewarding section. Although there are many ribbons, there are a few sections on which there are none. You need know how to orient yourself. There are a few steep sections on the ridge but not too steep. You don’t need snowshoes at this time but there is still snow on the ridge. We were also lucky with the weather. It was cloudy on the way up and cleared up on the way back which helped to keep the snow not too slushy. The entire hike took us about 10 hours. A long day but worth it.”
