HIKE THE ROCKIES
Mountain Trails is located in Golden, B.C. Canada. Guided hikes in the Canadian Rockies, Selkirks and Purcell Mountains. We enjoy family hikes; nature walks; easy and difficult hikes;and multi-day treks. The owner,Vic Bennett, has spent 25 years working and hiking in Kanaskis Prov. Park,Banff,Yoho, Kootenay, Glacier, and Mount Revelstoke National Parks. Hiking guides have been chosen because they have lived in this area for many years and have expert knowledge of the surrounding mountains. Hikes will be designed to meet the customer requirements. Families with children are welcome. Local accomodation will be recommended on request. Travel to the trailhead is generally less than 1hour. Clients are required to purchase "Park Use Permits" for hikes in the national parks.
The town of Field, B.C. has changed very little in the past 5o years. Situated at the base of Mount Stephen in the heart of Yoho National Park this small town is the "Take-off" point for hikes in Yoho. A herd of elk spend much of the summer grazzing in the townsite. In the spring residents caution caution their children to watch for grizzly and black bears that frequent the streets. Due to the elevation of Field most of the hikes are snow-bound until late June. Most trails in this park are designed for hikers on foot, providing access to high mountain passes and glaciers.
This trail on Mount 7 can be accessed with a 4-wheel drive from Golden B.C. in approximatley 45 minutes. The view from Mt Seven is of Golden and the Columbia Valley that divides the Rocky and Purcell Mountains.
