Yeah, good banter wasn't the only reason he wished someone else was with him.

Me thinks he climbed that thrice, going back and forth for the camera.

Cringiest comment I’ve ever read

I second this, def worth

Kind of an easy one for these guys but worth it for Frank Slide I guess

Check out the Purcell Mountains right besides the Canadian Rockies, they are even taller in Person.

i live just 90 minutes east of temple. our rockies are more craggy and more glaciated thus more lakes than the U.S. counterparts, also because of the glacier effect our valleys between mountains are "U" shaped and our peaks are mostly knife edge. I've read the opposite is true in the states.

Check the start elevation and the decomposition of the rock.

Yes, many ranges in the Canadian Rockies have summit prominence similar to those in Colorado, some even surpassing Colorado’s highest in prominence. The views in the Canadian Rockies are truly unrivalled.

@@jorykozak1239 True on average, more craggy and more exceptional vertical gain is the name of the game in the Canadian Rockies. But the US Rockies have a nice chunk of the Northern Rockies starting just south of GNP and of course including GNP and then naturally deep into Canada. What you don't get in the Canadian Rockies are massive high altitude basins, alpine tundra, valleys, plateaus, as well as incredibly deep canyons, and surreal desert landscapes and monoliths - commonplace in the jig saw sprawled US Rockies. There is also a severe absence of granite in the Canadian Rockies, but interestingly not across the Trench in the Columbia Mountains. Walking those chossy ridge lines in the Northern Rockies can be a chore, despite the awesome views. The US Rockies also have 5 of the 10 or so largest calderas on the planet above sea level and the beauty of these geological wonders reveal themselves in due time - like a fine, aged wine. The way the Central and Southern Rockies blend into the American Southwest is just spectacular and richly colorful. It's funny how the MA's spend less and less time in their native Utah, yet that state remains the most diversely beautiful collection of rocks I've seen to date. The more horizontal majesty and geological diversity of the US Rockies has actually been more my wheelhouse as I've aged. Vertical relief and prominence is oooh and ahhhh, the elegance of the Northern Rockies is undeniable, but inevitably the vertical ridge lines get the same, same. I'm just grateful the Northern Rockies don't have the overdevelopment of the Alps and Dolomites. The Northern Rockies are more beautiful, less spoiled, despite being shorter than the Alps. I actually love the broad, lower valleys of the Canadian Rockies most and the gorgeous forests are filled with excellent wildlife - but these valleys are lower compared to the US Rockies' valleys: and it's easily noticeable. I'm also aware a vast network of caves still remains uncharted in the Canadian Rockies. Regardless, both the US and Canadian Rockies are all part of one huge, transnational mountain range: The Greater Rockies. Similarly, the Alps, Himalayas, Andes, etc. cover 2 or more countries as well. But only the Andes exceeds the Rockies in total area.

When one legend comments on another legend's channel. 😎

Came here to comment that you and Danny should have done a summit

You guys should definitely do a collab

Seeing Simon here just confirms he is the man who knows what's good :)

I knew you had good taste Foresty!

Too true!

That is exactly what I thought and then I scrolled through the comments!

It isn't a hike, it's a scramble, and not an easy one. Big difference. Calling them hikes is why incompetent walkers get misled and later need rescues.

@@alan4sure sorry but, we canadian rockies consider this just a " Hike " I do this every year to start off my summer hikes. this may not be a beginner friendly hike but I wouldn't called this intermediate either and far from HARD. this hike is all about endurance and having a bit of gravel fun, nothing special. Great view tho. still in my top 3

@@marumarukira I first did Temple in 1980s, so probably before you were even born. Correct? Lol I've done it many times since too. It requires use of hands to SCRAMBLE through two rockbands, so that makes it more than just hike. And that's in ideal bare, dry conditions. Conditions which don't always exist. Seems you're unclear on definitions of hike and scramble. Calling it a hike underscores your lack of knowledge, whether you go up it every year or

Ikr, same in Norway

then you find out they're from toronto and just activated search& rescue ;)

SAR loves THAT

@@natronius is Toronto even in Canada? I like to pretend it's not.

the famous iron lung.

That's because you went during the Instagram generation ie now. Not many people went before that. Mostly hard core scramblers. I am from the foothills.

@@mjor6406 I've been going to Temple for 20 years now. I've watched the zoo start. If I can't be on the trail by 5am I find somewhere else to go. 🦓🦒🐆🐅

@@GotMountains Basically, you are one of them lol. 20 years? That's it? I have been going to the Rockies for 35 years. 90% of the hikers at Moraine /Temple only go up to Sentinel pass. The 5 or 10% go all the way up to Mt Temple and you only have 2 months of good dry period. Mid July to early September. It is a popular spot. Even seasoned hikers and climbers still go up to Sentinel or Eiffel Lake to show friends and family.

@@mjor6406 dude chill. The Instagram generation did not start 20 years ago, gramps.
