I happened to be going by Crater mountain west of Keremeos today and snapped some pictures on the way . Still lots of snow,probably till late July this year.If you want to google this site the actual top of the mountain is :Long 120.08115w Lat 49.17915n . Access is via Ashinola road in Keremeos,BC (road to Cathedral Lakes) and is in the back country and is only accessable with small high clearance 4x4 or all terrain vehicle during mid summer.Takes about 3 - 4 hours to get to the top if all goes well. Peak is over 7000 ft and is subject to snowfall at any time of the year! The View is spectacular along with the 6 m and 2 m reception from this site! Area is remote even though it is close to Keremeos so .....make sure that you do not go alone, let some one know where you are going and when you are due back. Also take note, cell phone and emergency access is very limited in this area.This summer ,do something different, grab your favorite radio and go mountaintopping....take a truck, atv ,car or hike it....just do it! BUZZ
