F205-39.376 - "Group of people in Grouse Cabin with snow shoes in front so as to represent the BCMC crest, 1930-1949"

The smiles say it all — a get together in the Grouse Mountain Cabin. Who could ask for more?

Their hobnail boots, seen here, would have been helpful in getting to the cabin. These boots gave traction while walking on ice or scrambling up steep snow. Those snowshoes would have been essential for getting across deeper snow. The snowshoes and ice axes in front have been arranged to represent the BC Mountaineering Club crest. Taken between 1930-1949.
