"Chelsea and I scrambled Heart Mountain and grabbed Grant MacEwan Peak on the way to the Twin Towers. The crux section involved an exposed but fun down-climb. We found it a little awkward to start, but the holds were good . The ridge leading to the West Tower offered a lot of fun scrambling with occasional exposure. There were also a few bypass trails just below the ridge crest, but scrambling would be my recommendation. There are a couple descent options off the top of the West Tower when heading towards the East Tower (Jewel Peak). The rest of the way is mostly a steep walk. Both peaks offered great views of the Kananaskis ranges to the south and east. McGillivray blocks the view to the west. Having only taken 3.5 hours to finish our 4 planned peaks, we decided to try for Mt. Barclay. I was aware of a route from the Mt. Lorette side, but the ridge line between the Twin Towers and Barclay looked feasible. With no beta, a clear sky, and a positive attitude, we headed for the south ridge that connects with Mt. Barclay. We explored a number of options to gain the ridge and drop to lower ledges when needed. There was very little backtracking, so route-finding wasn’..." — ivo • Jul 9, 2023

"Linked up Heart, Grant MacEwan, and the Twin Towers with Nico. A few snow patches but otherwise clear and the weather was great. Brought a bit of rope this time for the downclimb. I'm too old to solo now. Picked a line towards the left side and managed to scramble down the top half of it. Then, slung a rope over a fallen tree for the rest. 8 hours 30 min as we did to loop out on the way back." — danradu • May 7, 2023

"Started raining hard early on but tapered off as I made the top of Heart. Then an easy walk over to Grant MacEwan. Shortly after the departure from there I reached the downclimb. It's more like 8 meters vs 5 but it didn't look too bad. A bit to the right seemed like the easiest path down and with dry rock I gave it a go. Then, the fun scrambling begins along some thin ridges and bumps to the top of the West Tower. Then a quick whip over the East Tower for some nice views of Barrier Lake. Note: On the way back I opted not to climb up the little cliff. It seemed more daunting and my legs were too rubbery. I decended intot he tree on the right side and hugged the bottom of the ridge back to Grant MacEwan. I hate bushwacking but it's better than falling." — danradu • Aug 24, 2020
