Sulphur Skyline
Our Canadian Rockies series continues with our hike to Sulphur Skyline:
The Sulphur Skyline hike is widely regarded as one of the best hikes in Jasper National Park. Unfortunately this was a very smoky day for us, so I can’t confirm if that’s actually true or not. Without the smoke I’m sure the views are normally quite spectacular. I was, however, quite surprised as to how well my photos turned out - relative to the amount of smoke in the air. I can only conclude that the camera lens is able to cut through the smoke better than the naked eye:
Trail: Sulphur Skyline
RT Distance: 5.2 Miles (8km)
Elevation Gain: 2297 feet (700m)
TH Location: Miette Hot Springs
Map: Jasper North Trails Illustrated Map
Canadian Rockies Trail Guide Known affectionately as the Bible by outdoor enthusiasts, the Canadian Rockies Trail Guide was the first guidebook with accurate distances and detailed descriptions to the trails of the Canadian Rockies. The book includes 227 hikes for all fitness levels. Not only is Canadian Rockies Trail Guide known locally as the Bible, it is also the only hiking guide to the region recommended by Fodor's, Frommer's and Lonely Planet. With over 250,000 copies in print, the Canadian Rockies Trail Guide is one of the best-selling non-fiction books in Canadian publishing history
