We are staying in Concrete the whole time. Following is a list of the hikes we plan to try. Very very ambitious for a couple of 68 year ...

Re: Grinnell Glacier with kids

Welcome sandidee I went back and checked some previous Grinnell hikes and came up with the attached short video of some of the trail. I would recommend taking the boats for this hike. It shortens the hike to about 6-7 miles. You might try the ranger led hike if it would help with feeling more comfor...

Re: Way off topic

It is definitely close to the top if not at the top of the prettiest hikes I have done. If you don't want to walk the 9 miles in to the lake you can catch one of two buses each day. You have to make reservations at 6:00 on the day they open reservations each spring. We got ours and within an hour th...

Re: Glacier vs. jasper and lake Louise.

I don't know about September but the crowds were very large when we were there. We always get an early start and don't have a problem with parking. In the afternoon there were cars parked on the side of the road two miles from lake Louise. We were the first one's to summit Fairview but before we lef...

You have to make reservations months in advance but the views are awesome. Some exposure in parts. 2. Fairview mountain. The trailhead is at lake Louise. It ...
