Where was the trail head for this one? looks like a good family ride?
Grande Cache, rode to the top of Mt.Hammel @2105m N58.223 W12.573, and Caw Ridge. You can see Mt.Robson from those two places as well.

about 5 kms south of Grande Cache. that trail is not the kind you would let a child try on a quad, but he could ride with you. there are some pretty technical sections to make it up there if you are an inexperienced rider. one section is basketball sized rocks on a pretty good grade, a lot easier on the quad than on a bike but still kind of dicey. a few washouts to contend with as well. Caw Ridge trail is easily done by riders of all ages and skill levels, just a few minutes down the road (in the ditch on the machines) from the Mt. Hammel trailhead.

Just went up to the Mara Lookout from the Kingfisher side last week. Stopped at the Stash Cabin for lunch which was different without 12' of snow on top of it!
I believe Mara is 7395' by my GPS. Still patches of snow up there 3' deep!

Was recently at Nakusp, road Paint Lake (Area 51) and the Pingston Creek valley roads, went to Sandon lookout, Hailstorm Peak 2330m east of Burton which was really cool, 1500 foot 60 degree slope on both sides of a 6-10 foot wide razor back ridge.
Was up at Hunters Range cabin July 8, first quad in this year with sleds riding up July 2 from Owls. There was still 2-3 feet in trees and on north slopes at random
