注意

此路线是在Tony和Gillean Daffern合著的《Kananaskis Trail Guide book》描述的通往Mist Mountain最容易的一条路。在Alan Kane书中所描述的路要难得多,需要仔细的辨认和寻找路线。

行车路线

从Calgary出城沿1号高速公路向西行驶79km后向南取道Kananaskis Country 40号高速。向南行驶69.5km后至Highwood Pass (Meadows)停车场。这里有厕所。从此处继续前行13.2km,当高速路不再那么曲折时,在路的左侧停车,这里有一片开阔的草场。前方树线处,可以看到一个老路的入口,有一块大石头或者一个survey marker作为标志。这条荒芜的路可以通向Mt Lipsett和通往Mist Mountain的山谷,从Highwood Pass转入这条路时要小心别错过!

登山路线

Head up to the boulder and entrance to the old road, continue for a few minutes up the road to where it forks to the right. Take the road to the right. The left direction would lead to the Mt. Lipsett hike. After heading right in a few minutes you will come to a stream, cross this and you will be heading east parallel to the highway. This old road is extremely overgrown. You are basically wading through trees and bush along this section especially as you get closer to the left hand turn onto a narrow footpath. Watch for an orange survey ribbon on the left side of the road which marks this narrow footpath. This footpath will lead you into the alpine valley which goes between Mist Mtn and Nameless Ridge. If you miss this left hand turn and run into another creek that means you have gone too far, backtrack and look for the route again. Once you arrive in the open area of the alpine valley, head straight up to the col and then left into rocky bowl to access the slopes of Mist Mtn. About a third of the way into the bowl a steep slope to your right should be climbed. This slope takes you to a subsidiary summit of Mist. From this point you will see a prominent point as per the picture above and the true summit just behind. Scramble up to this point, then there is a short traverse, and a shorter narrow ridge to access the summit. You can return the same way or drop down into the upper portion of the bowl on a pretty good scree run. You can access the scree run midpoint between the subsidiary summit and the prominent point.
