13.1 km936 mVery DiffBow Peak - Easy ScrambleIcefields ParkwayA relatively short hike with a large elevation gain, this hike crosses the Bow River at its source from Bow Lake and makes it way up to Crowfoot Pass. From there we scramble up the backside of Bow Peak to the summit. Absolutely fabulous views from the top and from Crowfoot Pass. Rarely is it so easy to sign your name in a Canadian Rockies Summit Cairn Register. Strictly speaking Bow Peak is a scramble because the final ascent is off trail, but it demands none of the skill or daring that makes most scrambles so formidable.

10 km1400 mVery DiffMt SparrowhawkKananaski - Smith -DorrienFrom the trailhead, the trail is a steady and fairly steep climb through forest.. The right fork leads to the Sparrowhawk Tarns Continue climbing up fairly steep forested trail and begin to gain views of Read's Tower straight ahead. From here, you are now only 1.8km from the peak but you have many meters of elevation left to gain. Descend slightly to the left and then begin to follow the lightly beaten trail back up towards Mount Sparrowhawk. Very quickly you will leave the grass and from here you are scrambling and there is no longer an apparent trail. The route is quite simply "up". Keep travelling up and generally toward the pass that is just right of the peak. From here you can scramble up the rest of the way to the top of Mount Sparrowhawk.
