Peace on the Lions

Climbing parties organized and led by the B.C. Mountaineering Club continued to explore the mountains around Vancouver during the years before the First World War. Confidence and enjoyment is evident in this photograph of group who posed during a jaunt to the peaks of The Lions in the summer of 1914.

BCMC 63-10.
