Mt Temple Scramble - Banff National Park

Type: Interesting

Description:
I've been wanting to go to Banff National Park for years. I've wanted to climb Mt Temple because it's one of the first trails in Banff I ever heard of. It took a couple of years and a few false starts but eventually I made it to Canada's endless mountain splendor in Banff. Unfortunately, I couldn't get anyone else to go. But at the 11th hour I threw out a hail mary to wildlife artist Nick Coleman. Not only did he agree to get tested for Covid and go, he even agreed to drive. This trail starts at Lake Moraine and goes straight up 5,000ft in 5 miles. The Mt Temple trail slowly reveals a glacier spotted landscape with blue alpine lakes and rugged mountains in every direction. It's awesome.
