"Decided to try out the new trail. While it might be more pleasing to the eye, I don't know if it really is any safer at all. There were numerous dogs on the trail, and there was even two parties with cats as well." — BertB • Aug 15, 2019
"Corbin and I decided to hit up another mountain after the Baldy Traverse, we had banked on the trip potentially taking 8 hours and it barely took 4. So we decided to beat our past record of three summits in one day and aim to summit four. It was super super busy haha, obviously a very popular hike and an easy one. Took us 2 and a half hours with a 40 minute nap on the summit cutting into that time. " — TBird • Aug 20, 2016
"Wouldn't normally go, except that this was an off day. Saw three mountain goats, which is rare, but awesome. Busy with lots of people. Very little wind at the top and great weather made this a good ascent." — leigh-annewebster • Jul 2, 2016
"Evening trip up, while the sun was setting and down in the dark. Microspikes good for going down. Ice the whole way except the top. Really bad at the bottom till the firs switchback. Slow coming down in the dark I hugged a few trees." — Randy • Mar 8, 2016
"After bagging Mount Lady MacDonald in the morning, four members of the University of Alberta Outdoors Club attempted Ha Ling Peak (with three succeeding) despite scorching early season heat. " — Steven-Noel • May 23, 2015
"Awesome climb, a little icy with the snow left in the forest section. Snowstorm rolled in just as we got past the tree line but quickly went away so we could get an awesome view at the peak!" — trek29 • May 2, 2015
"Started from the Canmore Nordic Centre and jogged up the road to the trail head this added about 275 meters elevation gain and 5km each way. Total time 3 hours. Yes it was windy at the top again so I did not go to Miners peak although I was hoping too, next time!" — Randy • Mar 29, 2015
"Short on time today decided to set a personal best for Ha Ling time 1hr to summit 1hr 32min return. Not to bad but not as fast as the guy that passed me 5 minutes before the summit. The well travelled trail is ice most of the way especially the bottom half. Hopefully the nice weather stays all week for the chance to summit a new peak next weekend. " — Randy • Mar 8, 2015
"Loads of snow on trails, outside tree lines wind was unforgiving.. from the Ha Ling Peak we had a great view of an avalanche on another mountain. It was a great natural view.." — HumbleYogini • Apr 20, 2014
"A solo trip just to see what the snow was like. Less than knee deep at the road. Mostly packed trail to tree line where the snow was well over knee deep. Then almost none above tree line to the summit. Thankful for a group of 3 who broke trail in the tree line area. A cloudy day with light snow the whole trip. Temperature of about -2c all day and very little wind. Time to go up 2h20m with very few short stops. Time to come down of 1h including a short lunch stop. Elevation gain for the trip 700m, YTD elevation gain 64668m." — MtnJohn • Dec 2, 2012
"Cool Sunny trip up, stopped at the peak for lunch and enjoy conversation with atleast 15 others that day (Very busy). Clouds rolled in and clambered down in rain and sleet. Chilly end. " — Drambuie • Sep 9, 2012
"Thursday off ascent where we thought we'd be in the shade, but instead was sweating and swotting mosquitoes at 7am on the approach. Got hailed on briefly and never really was in the shade. Straightforward climb." — alexjoseph • Jul 12, 2012
"A quick trip to get the feel of the warm spring weather. The path is still completely snow covered, even though there has been quite a few people up there. Not nearly as crowded as summer! Only about 6 people made the summit today. If you got off-trail near treeline, the snow was over a meter deep. A solo trip. 1h30m to go up and 45m to come down. Lots of sun, about 40k to 50k winds, and a temperature range of +10c to +15c all the way up and warmer coming down, once I was out of the wind below treeline. Elevation gain for the trip 700m, YTD elevation gain 19655m." — MtnJohn • Apr 22, 2012
"A day of very hard work (training). Expected the trail to be very packed and icy. Crampons would be the perfect thing for a quick trip. Got there to find ankle deep new snow to over knee deep new snow near treeline. Several others had been up earlier and had a good trail broken. Temperature of about -2c all the way with no wind and no sun. I guess the first time here with no wind. The last 100m of elevation had not been traveled on, so I had to break trail. Only one to get to the summit this day. Elevation gain for the trip 700m, YTD elevation gain 14801m." — MtnJohn • Mar 18, 2012
"A bit of a lazy start after doing Heart the day before. Many people we met mentioned a very cold wind at the top. Not so, just cool enough for a light jacket while we had lunch. Lots of sun and a light breeze. Jason, Kati, Myself. Elevation gain for the trip 700m, YTD elevation gain 35472m." — MtnJohn • Aug 21, 2011
"A very busy mountain with some light rain at the start, then a mix of sun and cloud with little wind. Kati and Myself and a hundred others! Elevation for the trip 700m, YTD elevation gain 21645m." — MtnJohn • Jun 12, 2011
