Hike to Hector Lake

06/26/18

My girlfriend and I attempted this hike today after following the advice of friends who completed the hike in August last year. I wish I had seen this post before! Unfortunately we were unable to ford the Bow River crossing; there had been rain that morning and still a little early in the season. The advice on this blog and accompanying comments are spot on. Go prepared with walking poles/ jelly shoes etc. Closely observe the weather and I expect this hike is accessible via this trail in July/ August onwards (weather permitting). A hidden gem no doubt with the correct preparation. Enjoy!
