Mt. Robson

Post by steelfrog »

Howdy. Anyone have suggestions as to what would be a great hike, non-rope (Class 3, 4 ok) in the Mt. Robson area that affords great views of Robson? Many thanks.

Just do the hike into Berg Lake. The views are incredible throughout.

I would second that. It's a long (13 mile one-way?) hike that's all class 1 trail. But the views are stunning the whole way, as Koy mentioned, and it's hard to beat the views of Mt Robson across Berg Lake when you reach the campground at the end of the trail. Then if you want, there's plenty of exploring that can be done from there.

+1. That slate-blue water in the creek is remarkable, and if the ever-present clouds lift for a moment, the view of Robson's summit from the lake is incredible.

Yep. Often so think you could cut it with a machete.
