Battle Range MountaineeringJuly 27 - August 4, 2001 |
"Rare indeed is the alpinist who can gaze dispassionately upon the summits of Mt Butters, Moby Dick Mtn, and Mt Proteus, rising nearly 2000 metres in sweeping walls of firm rock and glistening ice from the deep valley of Battle Brook. The sense of remoteness and isolation, of true mountaineering wilderness, is very marked. An area of undeniable grandeur and ruggedness."
