"A day in the mountains always has a way of clearing your mind. Heart Mountain today with my friend @holleit who has now bagged her first peak. What a trooper! The 19th really dumped a fresh batch of snow onto the KCountry peaks which made things a bit more interesting. Highly recommend gaiters + microspikes as its slippery out there with knee deep snow along the upper ridge. It will likely take another week or two of good weather for it clear off again.

"A CSMC casual day doing the Heart/Grant Macewan Loop. It was a bit of a cool start but once we got past the Heart mountain summit the temperatures were quite warm. Snow was not much of a factor, but we brought microspikes anyways." — BertB • Jan 13, 2019
"Went to the top of a hot spring day, had too much gear, lots of snow higher up and could not complete the loop due to potholing in deep snow, sometimes up to my waist. Grant M peak will have to wait." — mountaindad • Apr 28, 2018
"Today and the first summit of this week was Grant MacEwan Peak and Heart Mountain. It's right off of Canada's #1 highway and was just over a four hour hike. Covering slightly over 10KM and with just shy of 1000Meters of total elevation gain." — TBird • Jul 27, 2016
"Second summit of the day. Did Mt Baldy earlier. Didn't even realize it would turn into a 3 peak day with the inclusion of Grant MacEwan Peak. Loose and steep. Pretty easy ascent though." — dunynelgeiger • Mar 2, 2016
"Objective was to set a personal best for Heart Mountain. Happy with the results 1 hour 12 minutes up and 1 hour 59 minutes total return trip. Including about 6 minutes of talking to people on the trail. Weather was nice." — Randy • Mar 7, 2015
"The windiest trip I have done yet. Estimate of about 80kph wind. Very difficult to keep moving in a straight line and could not stand in one place to take pictures... just had to keep staggering around and hope for the best!
About +8c at the start with mushy snow on the trail. Very little snow except after the first peak in the trees. Some deep hard drifts just after the main summit, where the register is at the cairn. Wind was even stronger after that. Usually a busy mountain... only Darren and Myself today. Elevation gain for the trip 875m, YTD elevation gain 4419m." — MtnJohn • Jan 29, 2012
"First time for Jason. A long day for him, a bit more than he expected. A nice sunny day with just enough wind to keep it bearable. Tracy, Jason, Kati, Myself. Elevation gain for the trip 875m, YTD elevation gain 34772m." — MtnJohn • Aug 20, 2011
"This was my first ever scramble and I wasn't sold on it right away. I realized afterwards that easy scrambles will be all I am interested in and I am not into exposure what so ever!" — makingwaves • Apr 17, 2010
