Our first destination of this trip was Mountain Assiniboine. We took helicopter flying from Mountain Shark. And settled our tents at Magog campsite. CEO (Chief Equipment Officer) and CCO (Chief Carry Officer) did not take helicopter, instead, they ran from Sunshine Village to the campsite, totally 27km.
Next morning, we went for hiking to Sunburst and three alpine lakes – Sunburst Lake, Cerulean Lake and Elizabeth Lake. On the trail, it started to snow. It was snow covered when we back to campsite. So we spent the afternoon at Mountain Assiniboine Lodge, drinking tee and having cake. Then back to our campsite making dinner,
The good thing of Magog campsite was that there was a roofed cooking shelter. Even it was snowing, we still could make our dinner in the shelter. 
The snow continued all night, we had to shake off snow accumulated over our tents during that night. Otherwise, all tents would collapse under the weight of snow. Next morning, we gathered at cooking shelter, when a ranger came. He said the weather reported 37cm snow in last 24 hours. And it was in September, even in this mountain area, this amount of snow was not seen in 100 years. The snow changed autumn to a winter wonderland. And here she is, Mountain Assiniboine hides her peak in clouds.
Ranger offered us stay in rangers’ cabin and suggested us flying out on Wednesday rather than hiking out as planed. We happily moved into the cabin. On the way to rangers’ cabin, this was the grand view of Mountain Assiniboine from Magog Lake.
The last day at Mountain Assiniboine, we were going to fly out with helicopter. The morning was chilly but clear. Finally, Mountain Assinboine revealed her majestic peak.
Snow was melting fast, along with creaks that formed leading lines to Mountain Assiniboine. I took another shot of the mountain.
Then helicopter lifted us to where we came.
