"Beautiful day for these peaks. We did Edith North in 2021, but gave up on the traverse because of fresh snow overnight. We found all trip reports have accurate descriptions. The only real route finding challenge was getting down the descent gulley from Center Peak. There were still snow patches lingering, that had us second guessing our safest options. We followed what we thought was a cairn, trending skiers left, and nearly got cliffed out above steep slabs. We climbed higher to a better vantage point and discovered some proper looking cairns and what looked to be the best line. Wouldn’t want to be in the gulley with another party though. Lots of loose rock. With all the fun features and decent views, this is one of our favourite scrambles. Note: Cory pass trailhead is not accessible due to Hwy 1A closure. So we hiked up from Hwy 1.

"Great scrambling with some neat features! Loved it. The tunnel was super cool. Opted to go around the flake on the way back cause the move to get up was super awkward. Took probably 9000 photos of Mt Louis " — jakefinnan • Jul 20, 2022
"A great day on Edith peaks. The descent gully on the central peak was full of snow, and the tunnel on the south peak was full of ice so we had to use the bypass ledge which was the sketchiest section. The crux was an overhanging boulder in the gully before the summit ridge, probably low fifth class." — yuri • Jul 9, 2022
"Great day out in Banff. Really nice Edith Pass trail and then up and over 3 peaks and direct descent and then rapidly to the car for <2 hrs from south summit. Leisurely 9 hr day with Alda." — alexjoseph • Jul 7, 2018
"Myself and 3 Army friends were on 2 weeks R&R whilst being based in BATUS. After hitting Edmonton and Calgary, we headed to Banff before going on to Jasper and Vancouver on an epic road trip. Whilst there, we explored the trails and near by peaks of this beautiful area. This was quite tricky in places, with chimneys and rock scree, after the first section which is moderately easy going. A great rock scramble with breathtaking views." — HikingViking • Sep 27, 1990
