There's no real way to find out how the conditions are up high unless you chat with hikers coming out...but a you can make a good educated guess by looking at the local weather - I usually check Canmore/Banff/Sunshine webcam/Lake Louise/Kootenay National Park). If it's cool and it rains in the valley, it's most likely snowing up high. As of this morning (Sept 29th) there's already a dusting on the local peaks, and if Environment Canada is right, and it rains like it's supposed to this weekend, then anything above 2,000m will be covered snow in Kootenay National Park. That said, keep an eye on the weather, all you need is 3 - 5 days of sunny days (15-20C) to clear the trail up. Good luck, let me know how it goes!Philhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18117932148351886940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5102598343634136512.post-6160350664316072412011-09-29T11:04:09.526-07:002011-09-29T11:04:09.526-07:00Andy: It was great to have your company on the tra...Andy: It was great to have your company on the trails...it definitely helps to have someone else 'out there' with you - Rest up for the next attempt, probably a little easier knowing what you're going up against now!Philhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18117932148351886940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5102598343634136512.post-11318305339869949922011-09-28T18:45:52.908-07:002011-09-28T18:45:52.908-07:00Hi Phil.

Do you know what the conditions are like on the Rockwall Traverse trail in early October? Is there snow there already? Too burly to run it? Glad to see you ran the four peaks! I'll be up there next weekend.<br /><br />Ian MacNairnAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5102598343634136512.post-37063905373450688732011-09-25T14:46:15.249-07:002011-09-25T14:46:15.249-07:00Was a great day in the mountains Phil, but after a...Was a great day in the mountains Phil, but after a big week, I just didn't have the legs to keep going. I'm told Canmore hit 28 degrees C yesterday, so the heat didn't help. Great effort, and I (unlike you) have to somehow psyche myself up for another attempt!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13134253640107544705noreply@blogger.com
