A Canmore landmark, this peak is situated south of the town above the Grassi Lakes climbing/hiking area. It boasts an impressive looking north face that rises almost 500m above the scree slopes below. It's massive face is currently home to nearly a dozen or so multi-pitch climbs as well as several shorter routes to boot. All routes will receive morning sun, but go into shade very early in the day meaning that warm temperatures are a must on most routes. There is an easy descent trail down the backside on which you'll likely encounter many a soul slogging their way up for a splendid view. On a clear day, it is possible to see the skyline of Calgary some 100+km distant from atop the summit.
