Silverdaisy, Claimstake and Hatchethead Peaks November 21-22 2015
Steven and I decided to go into Silverdaisy area as a overnight trip and I decided to go on skis while Steven decided to be on snowshoes,
Once we got at the parking lot for Cayoose Creek FSR we were able to put skis and snowshoes form the car and started our long way up on the logging road.
It's about 10km one way so it's a long way but it's pretty easy travel and that pays off on the way back especially if you are on skis.
We went up towards Silverdaisy-Claimstake col from where we went up first to Silverdaisy which wasn't too far away and from where I did my first turns for this seasons.
Once we got back at the col we continued our way towards Claimstake.
The ridge gets a bit narrow near the summit which we had to boot pack it.
Once we got on the summit of Claimstake we decided to camp pretty close to the summit where we found flat spot.
The plan for the next day was to go and do Hatchethead and maybe Eastpoint depending how we would feel.
We woke up the next morning and after our breakfast we started our way towards Hatchethead Peak.
The way was pretty easy just lots of ups and downs along the ridge.
Once we got back at our camp at Claimstake we packed our gear and started our way back down.
From Claimstake we decided to go down to the col between Claimstake and Eastpoint and decide there if we will go or not for Eastpoint.
Once we got at the col we made a decision that we were both tired and better to go down and leave it for another time.
