"Went a bit late in the day, and it was cloudy at that point unfortunately. It was a last minute hike so I wasn't as prepared as I should've been considering my goal was Sacagawea Peak." — edgar-jlopez-roldan • Sep 19, 2022

"The crux of the day for Mount Cannon was finding a parking spot at Logan Pass - I should've known better than to arrive at 9am on a Sunday! The next ordeal was navigating past the crowds on the Hidden Lake trail, this place was busier than Chinook mall. Once I left the main trail, it was blissfully quiet away from the crowds. Despite having a guide-book with me, and there being a lot of cairns along the way, I made plenty of route-finding blunders. Often I would ask myself - am I really on the right route? There were some fun sections near the top and I was surprised to find 4 other people already on the summit when I got there. On the way down I managed to stick more closely to the correct route." — geoffhardy • Sep 18, 2022

"I love the names of the mountains in Glacier National Park, particularly the ones on the Mad Wolf circuit. The approach was via the overgrown, deadfall-laden Boundary trail, but after reaching the treeline, it was pure ridge strolling bliss. On the way down there was a very cool waterfall with a natural bridge at the top. Following that a long boulder field traverse took me back to the Boundary trail and back to the car just after dark." — geoffhardy • Sep 17, 2022

"It was awesome to get back to Glacier National Park, Montana after a couple of years of border closures. Mount Henkel and Crowfeet Mountain had been on my wishlist for a long time, but to get there I first had to summit Apikuni Mountain along the way, since there is a grizzly closure on the usual ascent slopes for Henkel. On the way down from Crowfeet I stopped by the Ptarmigan tunnel, which is big enough for horses to pass through. On the opposite side, there is an amazing trail that cuts through the red cliffs." — geoffhardy • Sep 16, 2022

"Not enough information about this route online... In short for the approach Sky Top both ways is far easier. Terrain is easier, and it is also prettier with more possible camp sites. It looks like on the topo map that Aero Lakes has more trail but this isn't true to reality. The use trails to Sky Top are well developed and beyond a couple water crossings pretty much just walking. Aero Lakes going from Lower to Upper, and Upper to Camp are exhausting boulder hops that require route finding. That said I did Sky Top up and Aero down to simply see more of the area. Now on the climb itself. The Southwest Ramp is no bones about it a basic class 3 climb. It requires simple route finding and basic scrambling. That said, I did it when all the snow was melted. If you also choose to do it with melted snow (Labor day-ish) then you should avoid the fixed lines people seem to leave the just scramble. None of the scramble is exposed. Finding the ramp itself is easy as well. As far as the dreaded 'rock fall' I can honestly say that its nothing special. If you've done Middle Teton you've experienced worse. Stay together, where a helmet, and be aware of parties ahead and behind you. The exp..." — Irrationalist • Sep 5, 2022
