Sulphur Skyline September 1, 2017

Well this was my first hike in Jasper National Park.  The day was beautiful except for the usual haze from the B.C. fires.  We had a group of 12 and the trail was a very busy trail.  Being Canada's 150th birthday #canada150 the parks have been free so they have truly been busy.  So we started up the trail and the total climb is 4 km each way.  It is pretty steady up hill all the way to the peak.  We had some young kids and they were troopers.  The views would have been incredible if not for the haze, but they weren't too bad. I got a look at a peak I had though about doing and will maybe do another time if ever in Jasper and that was Utopia Mountain.  The wind was another story, I almost thought I was in Waterton again.  Anyways after the hike it was nice to go into the Miette Hot Spring and relax and unwind in the warm water!

Unnamed Summit To the north of us as we hiked

Almost at the Summit, across the same unnamed summit in middle and in the distance on the left is Ashlar Ridge

Almost like a squirrel suite
