Mount Baldy Traverse
Kananaskis, Alberta
June 7, 2003
Distance: 7.6 km (4.7 mi)
Cumulative Elevation Gain: 960 m (3150 ft)

After Dinah and I attempted Mount Baldy when it was snow covered a month ago, we returned to climb all three peaks in dry conditions. Although the views and surrounding peaks were familiar, the scrambling was more interesting and challenging than expected.
