After much addition & subtraction to the numbers on this hike ...we settled with 5; welcome to Jane, new member this year & Envers, quest of Jacinta. Trail is excellent....through the trees and then into the rocky moraine area which is exciting to zig-zag over the rocks & boulders. Finally into the grassy high area with the beautiful tarn below. Enjoyed an hours lunch watching 2 HUGH brown marmets with white collars. Returning we watched 5-6 'clarks nutcracker' which entertained us for several minutes flitting from the tops of 2-3 trees. Beautiful. We finished by 2:30. Great day...thanks to all for coming. 10.33 km 721m gain 3h31min moving time. so states Strava FYI: 22-23 km from Canmore Nordic Centre 38 km from PLPP turn-off
