All athletes, coaches and parents of the ITA-TA-TT-LC-PC programs are invited to join in a fun club hike around Tent Ridge in Kananaskis country on Saturday, September 27th. This hike traverses the Tent Ridge horseshoe taking in three summits with one section of easy scrambling. Views of Robertson, French, Sir Douglas, Commonweath, Birdwood, Smuts and The Fist are part of the reward.
This is “one of the most enjoyable ridge walks you will ever take,” according to the Gillian Daffern’s Kananaskis Country trail guide.
TT-LC-PC will hike in a clockwise fashion (a bit longer and some exposure) and ITA-TA will hike out and back in a counter clockwise matter along the ridge and meet the older athletes for lunch. Parents are welcome to use either route. The full clockwise hike is about 10.5km and hiking time will be 4 hours – mark my words!

We will meet at 10:00am at the parking lot, see below. Please be on time!
How to get there:
From Canmore, follow Spray Lake Rd (742) pass the reservoir until you reach the Mt. Engadine Lodge/Mt. Shark turnoff. Turn there and drive 1.8 km to the trailhead parking area. Look for other CNSC vehicles
