What to Expect
Starting across from the Little Elbow Camp Access Road, this trail offers a moderate forested ascent leading to panoramic summit views that can extend as far as downtown Calgary on clear days. Be prepared for cooler temperatures and strong winds at the top, and consider extending your adventure by continuing along the ridge.
A few reminders:
• Dress for the weather and wear sunscreen
• Bring plenty of water and snacks (all food must be vegan!)
• Wear appropriate footwear and bring poles
• Arrive a few minutes early so we can start on time
We’re looking forward to getting outside together and hitting the trails!
See you there!
