Mount Wilcox pales in elevation compared to neighbours
Athabasca, Andromeda and Kitchener, but its strategic location
and straightforward route makes it far more accessible to the
average hiker or scrambler. When the weather cooperates, Mount
Wilcox offers possibly the best view in the entire Rockies for
the energy expended. On a clear day the panorama simply can't
be beat. Try from July on. |
