Valhalla Mountains

Most of the Mountaineering in this region was conducted in the 1970's as logging roads pushed further up the rugged valleys.

The centre for mountaineering is the Mulvey Basin accessed from the town of Slocan > Little Slocan Lakes Rd > 15km > Bannock Burn Rd and then follow trail past the bottom of Gimli and through the col on the west side of Gimli. Find a small cairn on the ridge leading to a small ledge that traverses over an exposed vertical drop of about 20m. Descend onto pocket glacier and traverse right above small cliff and then traverse left and descend glacier exiting on smooth granite slabs and into Mulvey Basin.
