EVERYONE WILL HIKE AT THEIR OWN PACE. SLOWER HIKERS ARE WELCOME AS LONG AS YOU ARE COMFORTABLE HIKING ALONE.

There are no avalanche hazards on the main trail. However, it can be very slippery. We will also hike in the dark. Microspikes will be MANDATORY. As will be headlamps. Anyone without microspikes or headlamps will not be permitted to join the group.

I will be coordinating these events throughout the Spring. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND these fitness-boosters for those signed up (or hoping to join me) for the Mt Assiniboine Trip, Beyond Glacier Lake Trip, and the Mt Temple Scramble.

Contact me if you are not able to drive but would like to come.
