"154 Kane peaks DONE!!! A stellar peak to finish on with a bit of everything and bluebird skiies! In view of where it all started 25 years ago on Mt Rundle...

"Since it was Alex last I decided to join him. It was a big push, warm. We left Calgary in smoke but had fantastic clear skies. I think we all ran out of water despite bringing a fair amount." — BertB • Jul 16, 2023
"Solid "difficult scramble" (Class 4 climb) near the summit, but not nearly as difficult as some people describe. Almost all serious exposure can be avoided on climber's left. Two downclimbs are definitely Class 4, but with plenty of handholds they don't present much of a challenge. Some terrain is very loose though." — Taras • Oct 16, 2022
"On July 23rd, Rob & I biked about 5km up Redearth Creek to visit Mt Brett. After stashing our bikes, we bushwhacked and log-hopped out way up the ascent valley. As the bushwhacking got lighter, we headed up onto the north end of the ridge and followed the it all the way the the summit. There were a number of fun hands-on scrambling parts on the final section of the ridge, which were enjoyable although the rock was loose and untrustworthy in many places. There are still two snow sections along the ridge, which can be bypassed on the right hand side. The descent went quickly, especially the bike ride out which was a blast." — geoffhardy • Jul 23, 2022
"Jenna, Kate and I went out in the heat on a long haul. We brought bikes, suffered through the bushwhacking and enjoyed our time in the hot, open space before sidehilling in annoying screen then ascending treadmill scree to the summit. The difficult route appeared to be in as well, but we did the slog. We were able to glissade two or three times for fun. No other people seen all day, no interesting wildlife... pretty quiet. And views were spectacular! " — leigh-annewebster • Jun 26, 2021
"Alternative Mt Brett ascent, via NW "face" and N ridge
Pilot - Brett traverse with bike approach:
total - 29km with 2,361m gain; 12:30 hrs car-to-car
on foot - 18.5km with 2,010m gain
Original plan was to stay as much high and on the ridge as possible. Mt Brett N ridge looks like a climb in few spots and to by-pass it, one needs to walk to pretty narrow ledges.
Decided to try NW face, that starts with a gully and then splits into ledges on the left and gully itself on the right (it was still snow in it but later in the season should be good). Found the way through the ledges to scree above. Once on the ridge, very straightforward: just followed it as much as possible, scrambled half of the summit block, then traversed to climber's left where wasn't so exposed and direct line to the summit. Overall difficulty is just moderate+. Had the only place at the ledges where was too lazy to find a way around and scrambled it up directly, would rate it at 5.2.
Pros:
- shorter and more direct route
- less elevation loss and consecutive gain
- plenty of water on traverse
- fun scramble on the ledges
Cons:
- lots of scree side and up hilling
Time splits:
Start - 6:15am
