This is Yamnuska as seen from the south. The eastern shoulder is on the right hand side of the photograph. The face of Yamnuska is famous for technical climbing, the name means "wall of stone" in the Stoney language. It is 360 meters in height. While often called Yamnuska, the official name is Mount Laurie - named so at the request of the Stoney in honor John Laurie who was an advocate for the native people of Alberta.
