This will be an interesting and scenic scramble in Spray Lakes
area. If you have done Yamnuska or Heart you should have no
troubles. Initial part will be the hike towards West Wind Pass;
from there
we follow the ridge to the summit. There are number of
possible variations: If we stick closer to the ridge crest, there is
more rock scrambling; most of it can be bypassed on the scree
to the left -- When we get to that point we will decide which
route would be more suitable for the group. | |||||||
| |||||||
How to Get There: | |||||||
Event Directions: | Take the Spray Lakes Road from Canmore, past the Nordic
Centre and park at a lakeside grassy pulloff ~22 km past the
Bow River bridge. LANDMARK: The pulloff is 1.4 km PAST the
sign for Driftwood Day Use Area. (If you pass Spurling Creek,
you have gone too far.)
