    Cool views everywhere, but plenty of people down in lake louise. Less people going up the trail to lake Agnes. The crossing over to go to the glacier area was too snowy and risk of avalanches. So we took the little beeh...

    A popular scramble. The scrambling itself is not that difficult if you stay on the route. The views are absolutely fantastic. There were a ton of mountain goats on this trail too. Definitely one of my favorites.

    A really fun scramble with a really interesting ascent via the headwall overlooking Ross Lake. The ascent line we took was quite fun, but the descent had a lot of loose rock and was a bit slower going.

    Pretty straight forward scrambling, mostly hiking, up until the rock band. There are a couple of ways through and they're marked with cairns. Lots of wildflowers and great views.
