Description

Great Divide Trail - Section B (Coleman to Kananaskis Lakes) Alternate Route.

This Alternate Route starts through the forest, along creeks, then through meadows, up over a pass with awesome views - snow and glacier covered peaks. And then back down again along creeks in the forest. Stretches of no trail, route finding skills needed.

Please see the resources listed above under Need to Know for up to date detailed descriptions and valuable hiker information.
