    Six of us started to hike around 11:00 am at the trailhead (on Lost Creek Forest Service Road). We had our first stop by the lake (McKay lake) around 12:30 pm. We reached to the peak around 1:40 pm.  The peak has great view of surrounding area. You may see my photos from the following link: https://www.flickr.com/photos/benrose/albums/72157671936492164

    When we arrived to the parking area, it was around 5 pm. The elevation gain is 1000 m. Thank you Siegfried for leading us on this hike…

    Apparently, there is a Benedictine Monastery above the town of Mission. Monks from that monastery were active around the area. One of the groups is responsible for the official name of the mountain.

    See you on the trails…
