Being in the Coast Mountains we should have expected that the weather wouldn't last.    The weather deteriorated and the chopper wasn't going to be able to fly us out, so we had to navigate through the whiteout obscuring the peaks behind Wayne in the photo, and hike down out of the clouds to the hut at Lake Lovely Water in the hope that the visibility would be better there, allowing the chopper to land.    If not, we would have to hike all the way out on foot, cursing ourselves for having to carry all those extra luxury items that we brought in because we thought we wouldn't have to carry them on our backs!
