Ha Ling Peak

"Easily doable with spikes and poles. Got down just before storm rolled in. Bagged Ha Ling, Miner’s, and the two false summits of Miners. 1:45 Up 1:00 Summit exploration 1:00 Down" — jakevatcher • Feb 16, 2026

"Scramble route up the bowl. It was a good day for me to go check this route out. Fairly moderate with one short section that felt only slightly awkward, but that could be because of the line that I choose. Lots of people at the summit. Talked to a couple from Minnesota." — Randy • Sep 21, 2023

"This is the second time trying Ha Ling, the first time I tried was in summer. This time I went during the end of winter with some friends, this hike needed ice cleats, nothing else really was need beside some basic winter gear. I found this hike much easier during the winter then the summer during the summer it was hard as I didnt have hiking shoes during the winter I had the proper gear. Fun easy summit anyone could do with the right shoes " — trevorgoodram • Mar 25, 2023

"Tackled this one with the children and another lady named Emma who was bagging her first peak. This was my first time on the trail since the recent trail work was done on it. Trail is impossible to lose. follow it all the way to the summit. Despite the hordes of people, the views at the top truly are outstanding. " — Slogenstein • Aug 24, 2019

"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
