An easy ascent

Mount Lineham's south aspect presents little more than a steep walk, although many hikers trudge to the top by the more circuitous Tamarack trail/west ridge approach. The summit gives a fine view of Mount Blakiston and the Hawkins Horseshoe traverse that finishes here. In early season, snow-covered south slopes are the perfect angle for practicing self-arrest, and glissading conditions can be tremendous then, too. Try from about June on.

Sorry... We're working on it.
