Marvel Peak, bike+scramble
44.25km with 1,900m gain in 11:30hrs

scramble involved: lots of boring hiking, some good and difficult scramble, sporadic trail running.
bike - 12.5km return

It's a shame that biking isn't allowed on Bryant Creek trail; for the first 5k it is actually a road in perfect condition. If to ask the Parks, they may allow it; though I guess a chance of that is lower than of winning a lottery :D

Saw Jake & Vern's reports from the BC side. After doing some investigation, got the following numbers:
Vern's TR - 23km with 1,600m gain; drive to a trailhead from Calgary - 280km
from Mt Shark parking - 6km x 2 on bike, ~30km on foot; drive from Calgary 140 or 170km via Canmore or Hwy 40 correspondingly.
Decided that I'd better spend some time on the bike vs driving twice as much.

In addition to that, was really interested to see if the North ridge is going. Which worked out really well: nice easy to moderate scramble to the first high point on the ridge. And difficult exposed at couple sections - to the main summit.

The way out: as it was my first time in the area, was interested to do a loop. In retrospective: the views from the lake are bad, an exit via Owl Lake will save both distance and extra elevation gain.

Overall, great scramble for a long day with superb views, especially with an ideal weather like it was today.
