Write Up:
We forded a very murky upper McDonald Creek (likely due to a landslide far up Mineral Creek) to gain access to the long bushwhack up to the basin between Vaught and McPartland. Not only is the bushwhack rather dense at times, it is also quite steep, and we had to negotiate some interesting class 3 cliffs in the brush. From the lovely basin, we then ascended to the saddle and on to the peak, before returning the way we'd come. Long day, with a great group!
