		His paternal grandfather, Lieutenant-General James Outram, was created a baronet for outstanding service in the Indian Mutiny, and his father also distinguished himself in the military.
		While he was exploring the Ice River valley and elaborating plans to climb Mount Goodsir, Outram was drawn to the unscaled Mount Assiniboine, at 11,875 feet the highest mountain in the Canadian Rockies south of the CPR.
		Sir James Outram is the author of “Two traverses” and “The first ascent of Mt. Assiniboine,” Alpine Journal (London), 19 (1900): 624—25 and 21 (1903): 102—14, as well as the book In the heart of the Canadian Rockies (London, 1905).

	Peaks of the Canadian Rockies
		James Outram was the first man to reach the summit of Mount Assiniboine.
		The mountain was named in 1885 by George Dawson who first saw it from Copper Mountain on the south side of the Bow Valley west of Banff.
		Although the mountain's slopes from this angle are similar to those of the Egyptian pyramids, the peak lacks the three-dimensional aspect that a true pyramid requires.

		Outram's focus on first ascents was made clear when he wrote that the mountaineer's soul, "will crave- and rightly so- the chief joy of the climber's ambition, a 'first ascent'." This unabashed competitive urge brought him into conflict with some of the other early mountaineers.
		Many of the high mountains he climbed were in the headwaters of the North Saskatchewan River where Outram was able to take advantage of Norman Collie's preliminary explorations of 1898.
		Outram spent his remaining years in Canada, having found, "in the lonely woods or on the solitary mountain tops of Canada, the long-sought sanctuary of the storm-tossed soul.

		The glaciers and terrain of the major mountain ranges and their subsidiary mountain ranges, mountains, mountain groups, mountains peaks, and mountain ridges will be discussed here in turn, beginning with the Border Ranges at the southern end of the Rocky Mountains.
		As in the mountain group to the south, glacier density increases westward, and there is a predominance of rock glaciers, debris-covered glaciers, and large expanses of proglacial moraine.
		Waputik Mountains (PC1) Extending northward from Kicking Horse Pass is a triangular, elevated area of peaks and ridges bounded on the east by the Bow and Mistaya Rivers and the mass of the Front Ranges, and on the west by the valleys of the Amiskwi and Blaeberry Rivers.

		It is a huge and complex icefield surrounded by numerous mountain giants between which glaciers wind their way to the valley bottom.
		Mountaineer Arthur Coleman followed 65 years later, and with his mountain savvy, knew immediately that he'd been "humbugged" by Douglas' chest beating.
		A vast snowfield, feeding many glaciers, lay at our feet, rock-peaks and snow-covered mountains were ranged around it, whilst, far away to the westward we could just see through the haze of the valley of the Columbia River.

		Hermann Schlagintweit, who has had a great deal of mountain experience in the Alps and in the Himalayas, up to the height of 20,000 feet or more, tells me that he found the headache, etc., come on when there was a breeze, far more than at any other time.
		A mountaineer, when he meets with a formidable obstacle, does not hold on the rock by means of his feet and his hands only, but he clings to it like a caterpillar, with every part of his body that can come simultaneously into contact with its roughened surface.
		It is nearly impossible to lose an old mule: for, if detained several hours by force, she will, by the power of smell, like a dog, track out her companions, or rather the madrina; for, according to the muleteer, she is the chief object of affection.

	Chronology timeline, North American ski mountaineering backcountry skiing
		While many mountains in North America were explored by people on skis in the early 1900s, the actual event of a person climbing to the top and skiing back down may have occurred at a date later than the first ski exploration.
		He becomes one of the most influential ski mountaineers in the formative period of Canadian ski alpinisim, when skiing was virtually unknown to most Canadians.
		He and thirteen others make up the charter group that includes ski and mountaineering legands such as Glen Dawson, who went on to be with the 10th Mountain Division and skied the Trooper Traverse from Leadville to Aspen, Colorado.

		Ponggol is on the north-east coast of the island, and Harbour Front is on the south coast, at Keppel, opposite Sentosa Island.
		North of Nepa/Coho, the combined Mountaineer uses the CN route on the north-west side of the Thompson river and Kamloops Lake, crosses the North Thompson, but diverges from the Canadian's route just before entering Kamloops CN/VIA passenger station (called Kamloops Jn till 1977, now known to CN as Kamloops North).
		At Kamloops North the Mountaineer takes the west-to-south side of the wye on to the c.5km connection heading south through what was CN's earlier (1927-built) Kamloops station to reach the CP at the east-facing Kamloops East Jn, at which point it reverses into what was Kamloops CP station to spend the night.

		He recorded the event in a few pregnant sentences that are strangely memorable:-- "It was on the day, or rather night, of the 27th of June, 1787, between the hours of eleven and twelve, that I wrote the last lines of the last page, in a summer-house in my garden.
		The air was temperate, the sky was serene, the silver orb of the moon was reflected from the waters, and all nature was silent.
		Wearied with the length of my walk over the mountains, and finding a soft molehill, covered with grey moss, by the wayside, I laid my head upon it and slept.

		The trail split for the upper valley loop is at km 5.1.
		While the Giant Steps lie 3.7km upvalley on the low trail, most hikers will want to turn left, cross Paradise Creek and climb directly to Lake Annette, which the British mountaineer James Outram called "a tiny bit of sky dropped from the heavens and almost lost in the depths of the sombre first.".
		There are good views ahead to the valley's headwall, formed by Hungabee Mountain and Ringrose Peak, and the Horseshoe Glacier sprawled across its base.

		The Gaboon proper is included between the Camarones Mountains to the north, and the "Mayumba,"properly the "Yumba" country southwards, in south latitude 3° 22',--a shore upwards of 400 miles long.
		The Mountains of the Moon, so frequently mentioned by M. du Chaillu and the Gaboon Mission, are doubtless the versants between the valleys of the Niger and the Congo.
		Mackey and Clemens, of the Corisco Mission "explored more than a hundred miles of country across the Sierra del Crystal Range of Mountains" --I am inclined to believe that a hundred miles from the coast was their furthest point.
