Route: from the Bow Valley Motel, walking up Main St and then south along 8th Ave to reach the bank of the Bow. Then running north to the footbridge and south again on the other side along confusing paths between houses on the edge of town before rising to reach the Power Line trail. Taking a winding trail to to south heading uphill on switchbacks and rising 160m eventually to reach the Highline. Along it north west crossing four creeks to reach a descent to a car park then further west to descend steeply to cross two bridges and regain Canmore at Main St.
Conditions: after a morning of low cloud and heavy rain (a la Kendal), surprisingly sunny though shaded by trees.
Pub: the Wood Lounge for Big Rock, Monkey's Fist.
