From Galehead Hut

We got to Galehead hut in just over 3 hours (which is about book time) via the Gale River Trail (4.6 miles and 2,200 feet of elevation gain - mostly at end).

The Gale River Trail is a nice hike. The first two-thirds or so are along the river with some neat crossings. The elevation gain is pretty slow at first too. The last third is consistently steep once past the overlook.

What a perfect day - beautiful trails and mountains. The hut is cool - heading up to Galehead Mtn now.
