Tent Ridge Hiking - 11km climbing mountains up and down... The Spay Lake is so beautiful even the wildfire causing the mist looking at Rocky Mountains.

 

Met 4 guys from US, we hiked together in order to scare the bears, it is the bears' country at Kananaskis. The Park Alberta staff told us, there were 6 bears in the area.

 

It is the exclusive pano view from 12 vertical photos.

 

 

The videos show our hiking on the ridge.

PS: Experiences and recommendations:

-- This is not a simple walk-up. You can go "Clockwise" or "Anti-clockwise". Clockwise is a bit easy.

-- You must be comfortable using your hands to scramble.

-- This is a long, demanding hike. Take enough water and food, no water on the ridge.

-- Start early to avoid afternoon thunderstorms and to give yourself plenty of time.

-- Go with a group to avoid the bears in the bears' country

-- The ridge is completely exposed. If there is thunderstorm, high wind, rain, or snow/ice on the route, the rock becomes very slippery, do not attempt to hike on those weather!

-- You need download offline map (AllTrails, Gaia GPS or Topo Maps Canada). AllTrails and Gaia GPS need to pay, Topo Maps Canada is free, and it has all the trails info all over the world! You need to download it beforehand when there is signal, and you can use it offline!
