Keiths Hut/Mount Matier

Last ski trip of the year!!  Simon and David came up from Vancouver to do the spearhead traverse from Blackcomb to Whistler but with a poor forecast we headed out to the Duffy lake road to spend a night at the Keiths Hut.
With what looked like the last blue bird day for a while we headed up the Matier Glacier from the Joffre lakes.  A wild ascent line underneath the North face of Mnt Slalok and up through the Matier glacier icefall took us to the summit Mnt Matier befor heading down to the hut for the night
