From the parking lot behind the Kananaskis Lodge, the north ridge looks easy and straight forward.I followed a well established snowshoe trail part way up the east side of the north ridge.This is where things started getting 'interesting'. Steep, unconsolidated snow and alders. Not a good mix.A glorious morning.The lower trail was obvious and very easy to follow.Starting to get a bit bushy but still following a good track.Pano from the summit of Kidd Junior, looking over the lookout to the north.Ribbon, Bogart, Wind, Allan, Olympic, Lorette, Baldy, Wasootch, Kananaskis, Old Baldy, McDougall and Volcano Peak.Looking towards Mount Kidd and Kidd Junior from the old lookout site.A wider shot looking further along the ridge.Old BaldyWasootch on the right and Baldy on the left.Lorette on the right and "Twin Towers" on the left.A cool view through the hwy 40 "gap" which is the exit from Kananaskis Country.Wind Mountain is another peak of Lougheed that I still have to do.Ribbon Peak is a fond memory.Bogart looks impressive from this angle.
