I spent three days (two nights) snowshoeing with Drew in Peter Lougheed Provincial Park around Upper Kananaskis Lake. (Photographic evidence is available here.)

Two waypoints this trip:

• Trailhead
  • Elevation: 6009ft
  • N 50°37.922′
  • W 115°08.416′
• Point Campground
  • Elevation: 5678ft
  • N 50°37.495′
  • W 115°10.876′

Thanks to the Giant Scalable Image Viewer, I sliced, diced, and uploaded the topo for the trail Drew and I will be hiking this year. It’s like Google Maps, only for the topo.

Thanks to Drew for annotating the image.
