Follow the hyperlinks to hike-specific pages.
Note: I have the Topo Maps Canada app on my phone, which is helpful for route-finding.

Pedley Pass [August 2, 2019]
Strenuous short hike (2km, 300 m elevation) to panoramic views; well worth the effort. Options to visit a tarn and create a loop with a ridge walk.

A steep slog (even with the help of the chair lift!) but nice views along the way
