| Three hours car to car while my family was comfortably asleep at Moraine Lake. Incredible views. Celebrated Canada day with my new canuck friend - a marmot I shared the summit with. | |

| Did Fairview Mountain after a recent dusting of snow, made Temple look magnificent, even more so than it did a week ago when we climbed it. Easy route, did Saddleback Mountain as well. | ||

| How can such an easy climb have such great views? :-D I was almost too lazy to pick my way up here after zoning out, but then I got a spurt of energy and summitted within an hour of leaving Lake Louise. | |

| Great hike to the top with amazing views. Left Lake Louise nice and early in the morning (6:50) and managed to make it up by 8:45 to enjoy the morning without anybody else on the trail. Definitely recommended. | |

| Hiked up to the summit after Saddleback with my wife. We used to love the Post Hotel in the village and the bakery during our visits in the 90s | |

| Nice hike up, not too crowded and good weather. Great views of Lake Louise and the surrounding mountains. (If you try it, look for the pikas in the rock fields). | ||

| dmiki | Lot of avalanches Date Climbed: May 17, 2007 | |
| Summited with three friends. Marvelous views of the surrounding peaks and the busy avalanche activity going on all over the place. Practiced glissading and self arresting techniques on the way down. | |

| Via Saddleback Pass. Of all of the mountains I've climbed, I'd have to say this one has the best view of its close neighbors: the Mitre, Mt. Aberdeen, Lefroy, Victoria Glacier--stunning. | |

| So many hikers on the mountain that day! The amazing glacier views sealed my fate as a scrambler, I'll have to go back sometime. | |

| Climbed Mount Fairview during my first trip to Banff. Great view from the top and popular summit in the area. The Canadian Rockies were just as I imagined them to be. Very beautiful mountains. | |

| Via the Saddleback route. Fine day out. Longer than anticipated due to the fact I had to retrace my steps to find my glasses which I dropped. All worked out though. Found them. Passed on this one over the years. Glad I took the time. | |

| Took a friend who was visiting up Fairview for the spectacular view! Had hail and rain at the top, but the sun came out just as we were about to head down. It was nice because the summit was quieter than usual! | |

| The weather was a little crummy: we had a little rain and it was windy and quite chilly at the top, but the scenery up there is unbelievable. Dig those glaciers! | |

| Nice easy scramble in perfect weather on the longest day of the year. The views are definitely fair to say the least. Watched two skiers on Aberdeen trigger a big avalanche. They both escaped unharmed. | |

| quite cloudy and even got snowed on a little so we didn't get that great of a view. Kind of dissapointed that I couldn't see the whole lake louise. | |

| A nice hike, but too much of the trail is in the trees--reminded me of sulphur mountain! The roomy summit was beautiful and warm with hardly any wind. A lot of traffic, as this is high tourist area! | |
