The next summit beyond Numbers Peak via the increasingly popular Squamish Headwaters route. Higher than numbers and likely offers one of the best 360 views of the icefield...without the aid of heli! Approach to camp below Numbers is well established (I've been), with the current good access this area is primed for deeper exploration. Road is in good condition, suitable for SUV. I can only transport max 3 others in my vehicle, but seating is very tight.
Day 1. Hike to camp below west slopes of Numbers. 4 - 5 hours.
Day 2. Climb Famine from south, glacier travel. Finish via standard West Face scramble, class 3. Return to camp.
Day 3. Hike out.
