| 4km round trip, took 1:30 round trip (not including the time spent at the top, which was 1+ hours). I would call it an easy* scramble (From the Canadian Rockies). If you know what a scramble is you can do this no problem. Some hands on scrambling is required but it has very little exposure. A fall would result in minor injuries. There is some steep flat rocks that would be treacherous if wet. So don't attempt when the rock is wet. Otherwise the path is well defined and marked the whole way. It was an easy fun day on a mountain 😀🗻🖒 *Difficulty grade* 1. A difficult hike = an *Easy Scramble = steep, some hands on may be required and little to no exposure. 2. A moderate Scramble = hand on climbing required, some exposure, a fall would result in major injury, helmets would be a good idea to protect from rock fall in the scrambling selections. 3. Difficult Scramble = lots of hands on climbing, high exposure, a fall could be fatal, rock for the more difficult scrambles is considered, helmet required. |
