There may be people who overlook the Arnold Schwarzenegger performance in “Total Recall” – who think he isn’t really acting. But the performance is one of the reasons the movie works so well. He isn’t a superman this time, although he fights like one. He’s a confused and frightened innocent, a man betrayed by the structure of reality itself. And in his vulnerability, he opens the way for “Total Recall” to be more than simply an action, violence and special effects extravaganza.

The majority of people who attempt this summit do so by the standard hiking route. For the technically inclined, climbing routes are also an option. The main route to Vesper Peak starts where the Sunrise Mine road ends. Even the view from the end of the road is pretty good. Looking up to Morning Star Peak and Sperry Peak gets the blood pumping.

Vesper Peak is a peak along the Mountain Loop Highway region of the North Cascades of Washington state. It is about 18 miles (29 km) south of Darrington and 21 miles (34 km) east of Granite Falls, in the Mount Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest. Its gentle south and east slopes contrast with a sheer north face which offers “excellent technical routes”.
