Description

NTS Map: 082G01

gain - 1300m (4,270 ft).

This is a Ridge Walk that includes three peeks along Akamina Ridge. Most of the Hike is actually in BC, but you start the hike in Waterton National Park. And given it is in the SE corner of BC the chances of the ridge being very windy is very high.

(Editor's note - see also Akamina Ridge).

Directions:

Take the Cameron Lake Road. There is a small parking lot just before Cameron Lake called Akamina Ridge. The trail is not an official trail, but is marked well in Gemtrek's Waterton National Park Map (http://www.gemtrek.com/waterton.html). There is also a good description in "Don't Waste Your Time in the Canadian Rockies: an opinionated hiker's guide".
