Write Up:
The five of us started the hike at 8:45 am. The hike to Forum Lake was relaxing and a time to enjoy the fall colours. After a short break at the lake we proceeded to the initial slope, to begin the ascent of the rock wall. Once on the first part of the ridge, winds felt much stronger and forced us to our knees. A decision was made to not proceed and to return the way we had come. Knowing Akamina Ridge is an amazing ridge walk with outstanding views we told the ridge we will return.
