Bram, your waypoint for the start of the bench seems quite different from mine.  I thought I used one that was right where the trees were where you had to drop down just slightly before traversing.  Did you just guess from the map?  Or did I use the wrong one or something?

: Scott, the waypoints I used are from a gps (track log). I also pressed mark to get a waypoint at the start (or where I thought the start (northernmost point) was) of the bench. Did you use a gps or a best guess with a map. I just plotted your GR on my digital map and this did not plot on my gps track at all. It plots below the high point that I have marked on the google map on the harrison hut wiki page, and seems to fit better with a possible descent route (if you were to b-line down from the highest point)... I made a screen shot, see [http://www.eos.ubc.ca/~bvanstra/files/screen_shot.tiff link]. Your point is WP0001. --[[User:Bramvs|Bramvs]] 15:01, 27 June 2008 (PDT)
:Hmm, yeah, something definately looks funky.  I'll check the waypoints in my GPS again after the weekend (it was a waypoint, not a guess). [[User:Swebster|Scott Webster]] 15:45, 27 June 2008 (PDT)
:Ok, checked my waypoints, and I agree with your bench start position now.  I have an almost identical position recorded in my gps as well... I must have just mixed up my waypoint numbering (I descended by glissading via the point I originally posted, but your route is superior, especially for the exit).
