Cedric, Shaun, Russ, Lynn, David A, Diane and Liz. It was a day for a longer hike to Cathedral Lakes and Duchesnay basin. Firstly along the Morning Glory Lakes Trail then Linda Lake Trail and then Cathedral Lakes Trail. On the most recent trail map (3rd Edition) the Duchesnay basin and the Last Larch Prospect Lookout are not shown but they are on older maps. It may be because Parks Canada is no longer committed to maintaining the Duchesnay basin trail. It became cooler as we ascended and windy with a few drops of rain so we were glad to be carrying extra layers of clothing. We had lunch at the Last Larch Prospect Lookout and were amazed to see Christa ascending Consummation Peak.
We returned by the Linda Lake trial which ends up going past the Parks Canada campground. This has flat pads for campers and adequate washing and cooking facilities. The last part of the trail is aside the road and leads to Lake O'Hara and the Le Relais cabin from where we ascended to the Elizabeth Parker hut again.
The GPS recorded 17.5 Km and 700 Meters ascent.
