Topic: 100 years ago, the Alpine Club of Canada organized the first expedition to Mount Logan, Canada‘s highest peak, located in what is now Kluane National Park in the Yukon territory. With a summit at 5,959 m in elevation and a circumference larger than any non-volcanic massif on earth, the 1925 expedition was faced with extreme temperatures, vast glaciers, and rugged terrain. Their accomplishment is one of the greatest in Canadian mountaineering history. Join Bryan Thompson and members of the Canadian Explorations Heritage Society as they present the 1925 film of the expedition: “The Conquest of Mt Logan,” and discuss their plans to re-enact this historic climb.
