This is a great larch hike. On the way to Burstall Pass we take a left and make our way through some stunning scenery with LOTS of Larches!!
There are some steep sections and even a small scramble step or two along the way. Once we're at the col there is the option to go a little higher along the ridge towards Mount Burstall to see both the Robertson and French Glaciers ( totally optional).
We can also top Piggy Minus on the return if we feel up to it for more larch magic.
I've done this hike once before and really enjoyed it and the abundance of larches.
The Slow and Steady Waiver and Code of Conduct are in effect. I will have a hard copy of the waiver with me at the meetup point.
The suggested gas fee is $20 per passenger. Some of us may go for burgers and beers after the hike so plan accordingly.
We will make a pit stop at the Kananaskis Visitor Center on Hwy 40 on the way to the hike.
