有一些疑问,要请登顶的Arber,Mashimaro和yali解惑一下:
从topo map和GPS track log来看,你们到的位置大约是红点(海拔~1860M),QQ所在位置是绿点(海拔~1840m),离topo map上的峰顶(1951m)非常近距离约二百米,爬高百米不到,你们没有看到旁边更高的point吗?
还有从topo map来看你们的位置就在一条好走的ridge line(向北略偏点西的方向)附近,你们看到了吗?(就是我画的紫红色的点线和另一张图里的红线)?QQ和我原来想从这条ridgeline抄近路走回到loop上,不知道可不可行。
我们中午休息的地方是兰点,如果按原计划走,一个时间不够,二是横穿陡的斜坡上爬到1718米的saddle(兰线加绿线)还是有一定危险和难度的。
注:紫红色的大致路线是我简单地把waypoints连起来做参考的。

Flora Peak is the highest point of a pleasant, alpine ridge 2km N of Chilliwack Lake. A hiking trail leads to the saddle 500m SE of the peak before dropping to Flora Lake, 1km E of the peak and 730m lower. Flora Peak is easily ascended via its SE slopes from the saddle. In winter, there is a good ski descent from the open ridgecrest W of Flora Peak. The slopes further E and immediately S of the peak are steep and largely treeless and bare rock, sliding readily and funneling into a narrow canyon- a hazardous area receiving full S exposure and heating from mid-winter sun.
There are gargoyle features NW of the peak. If Flora Peak were steeper, there would be good climbing on it. Near its summit, the rock is blocky, well jointed and clean. (Name status: Suggested) |
