Description

Thoroughly updated, expanded and redesigned, this bestselling, full-colour guide to scrambling contains dozens of new trips for experienced hikers looking for more challenging routes to the top of a mountain. The third edition of More Scrambles in the Canadian Rockies contains 39 new routes, in addition to updates to some of the 114 featured in the second edition, along with an inspiring collection of full-colour photos and maps. The regions of Waterton, The Castle and Kananaskis are covered comprehensively. Several scrambles in other areas (Crowsnest, Banff, Highway 93 North and Yoho) are likewise included in this edition. More Scrambles in the Canadian Rockies - 3rd Edition thoroughly outlines several different routes to each summit and includes alternative and easier descents. Encompassing a wide range of levels of difficulty, the third edition of More Scrambles in the Canadian Rockies also contains general information on scrambling safety, suggested trips for specific weather conditions, details about each area, and single-day, multi-peak trips.
