Itinerary:

Rummel Lake is in a beautiful sub-alpine basin below the SW side of Mt Galatea. It is a moderately easy walk with no steep slopes to contend with toe either the lake or the pass beyond. Since thunderstorms are the hallmark of our summer this year, this hike is contingent on the afternoon weather co-operating.

Kananaskis Park pass for vehicles. The usual hiking necessities for a full day of hiking including bear spray and rain gear.

Recommended Items to Bring:
