"The Turret. Class 2 terrain ("moderate" scrambling). The actual scrambling is almost non-existent but the terrain is very steep and slabby. Bushwhacking is mild, If you manage to find the trail." — Taras • Sep 28, 2024
"Brief "difficult" scramble (Class 4 terrain) up a narrow gully to the official summit. The extension to the highest point is an exposed moderate scramble near the top. The alternative descent doesn't save any time. It is tedious in places but gives an opportunity to explore a nice hanging valley." — Taras • Jul 21, 2024
"We took Nugara route up and down. The final summit ridge is Class 4 terrain ("difficult scramble"). Remnant snow and water on slabs made it a bit trickier. The ascent/descent gully is extremely loose. We descended it very slowly to avoid "friendly fire"." — Taras • Jul 15, 2024
"This was my second time up, but this time instead of a longer bike approach from Elk Pass to Blueberry Hill I did the bushwhack from Kananaskis Lakes. Originally, Julie and I had wanted to do Mount Denny, but I just thought with it being 3000m and there being so much snow still on Kidd, Bogart, Fisher and ET that it might be best to wait still. Julie hadn't done The Turret, so she got a new peak." — leigh-annewebster • Jul 5, 2024
"I hoped for some snow to make the ascent easier but there was none. Summer conditions. Bushwhacking is unpleasant but not the worst kind. The rest is straightforward class 2 ascent. All scrambling can be avoided." — Taras • Jun 23, 2024
