8/16/2006  ~ Dan Hello Cyber Space Travellers! Last weekend I went on a 3 day backpacking trip in Jasper National Park.... I present to you "The Skyline Trail" I went with my buddy Rick, his wife Michelle, and their brother-in-law Jaden We had some rain, a very small bit of snow and one Grizzly Bear! The Skyilne Trail is 44km long. We did it in 3 days, I think if I had the time 4 would be better. The Skyline Trail has an elevation gain of 1350m. The Skyline Trail has end points at Maligne Lake and Maligne Canyon. The Skyline Trail has 7 designated campsites - ohh ahhh The Skyline Trail is above the tree line for 23km. The Skyline Trail .... well I don't have many more useless peices of information. It is an amazing hike and one of the most popular ones in Jasper. I now can see why, the views are just absolutely stunning! My pictures don't really do it justice, but here are a couple more. There is nothing quite like backcountry camping, I love being away from everything and just you, your friends, and the mountains. 2 comments
