Overview
This is a moderate one way trail in Peter Lougheed Provincial Park.
This trail goes by Pocaterra Ridge.
This trail is steeper when you start from the north side. The middle closer to the south side has scramble sections.
Getting Started
The south side parking area gets insanely busy especially during larch season. The north side is significantly less busy. Great point to point trail or you can start on either end and come back down.

Larches perfectly yellow at this time. Trail was 100% dry.
The south side parking area gets insanely busy - need to get there before 0800 during larch season. The north side is significantly less busy. We saw no one until the halfway point when we started at 0900 from the north side. The south side was a line up.
