Day 5 (Part 1) of Lupe’s summer of 2016 Dingo Vacation to the Canadian Rockies, Yukon & Alaska.<\/em><\/p>\n

After midnight, Lupe heard rain.\u00a0 Always light, never heavy, but steady.\u00a0 SPHP hoped there would be new snow on the mountains in the morning.\u00a0 Morning came.\u00a0 No such luck.\u00a0\u00a0The night\u00a0hadn’t been quite cold enough.\u00a0 Even if there had been new snow, Lupe might not have seen it.\u00a0 The mountaintops\u00a0remained shrouded\u00a0by clouds and mist.<\/p>\n

In early morning mist and light rain, Lupe and SPHP explored along the shore of Bow Lake from the picnic ground to where Lupe could see the toe of the Crowfoot Glacier.\u00a0 The toe was the only part of the glacier not lost in the clouds.<\/p>\n

A visit to the Athabasca Glacier, and a trek up to Wilcox Pass were on Lupe’s agenda for the day.\u00a0 Unfortunately, both would be pointless in this weather.\u00a0 All the glorious sights would be hidden from view.<\/p>\n

The American Dingo had been to Wilcox Pass twice before, on both her 2013 & 2014 Dingo Vacations.\u00a0 The views from the overlook toward the Athabasca Glacier and surrounding peaks\u00a0were the most spectacular Lupe had seen anywhere in the Canadian Rockies.\u00a0 Missing out on Wilcox Pass would be simply tragic!<\/p>\n

Nothing we can do, Loop,\u00a0but head N and see what conditions are like when we get there!\u00a0 Maybe these clouds will burn off or move\u00a0out by then.<\/em><\/p>\n

Nothing had really changed, though, by the time Lupe and SPHP\u00a0drove over Sunwapta Pass into Jasper National Park.\u00a0 The sky was still completely overcast, the mountaintops hidden from view.\u00a0 Light rain fell intermittently.\u00a0 It didn’t look like Wilcox Pass was in the cards at all.<\/p>\n

Surprisingly,\u00a0most of the Athabasca Glacier could be seen beneath the clouds.\u00a0 Lupe could still take the little hike up toward the toe of the glacier.<\/p>\n

The short hike to see the Athabasca Glacier didn’t take very long, but during that time, the rain virtually stopped.\u00a0 Off to the N, SPHP noticed two tiny patches of blue sky.\u00a0 That was all it took.\u00a0 Once back at the G6, Lupe and SPHP\u00a0drove S on Icefields Parkway Hwy 93 a few miles to the Wilcox Pass trailhead.<\/p>\n

Only 3\u00a0vehicles were at the normally popular trailhead, an indication of how poor conditions had been to start the day.\u00a0 Disappointingly, instead of growing as hoped, the\u00a0tiny patches of blue sky had disappeared.\u00a0 It was misting again.\u00a0 The temperature was only in the 40’s (\u00b0F).<\/p>\n

Lupe was undeterred.\u00a0 The Carolina Dog was ready to hit the trail!\u00a0 Another vehicle pulled into the trailhead as Lupe began her ascent to Wilcox Pass (10:00 AM).<\/p>\n

The first part of the Wilcox Pass trail winds around\u00a0in a forest while climbing steadily.\u00a0 Shortly after crossing a wooden bridge over a steep slope, Lupe came to the first viewpoint.\u00a0 Part of the Athabasca Glacier was in view, but clouds still clung to the mountains.<\/p>\n

\"Lupe<\/a>
Lupe on the Wilcox Pass trail a little beyond the first viewpoint. Part of the Athabasca Glacier is seen on the L. Photo looks WSW.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Beyond the first viewpoint, the forest thinned quickly.\u00a0 The trail was relatively level for a short distance, as it\u00a0led along the edge of a ridge.\u00a0 The Athabasca Glacier\u00a0could now be seen\u00a0most of the time.<\/p>\n

The steepest part of the climb was next.\u00a0 The trail turned away from the view and went up a big slope.\u00a0\u00a0Lupe passed\u00a0by\u00a0scattered patches of stunted forest, and was soon above tree line.\u00a0 Ominously, instead of clearing up, the sky was looking darker.\u00a0 The mist was heavier than before.<\/p>\n

Lupe wasn’t turning back now!\u00a0 The hardest part of the climb was over.\u00a0 The\u00a0trek to Wilcox Pass was becoming progressively easier when,\u00a0suddenly, Lupe stopped.\u00a0 She had seen or sniffed\u00a0something up on the slope above the trail!<\/p>\n

A small herd of Bighorn sheep was resting on the tundra.\u00a0 Lupe was fascinated.\u00a0 She wanted to stay right here and watch.\u00a0 Actually, she wanted to go trophy sheep hunting, but the leash prevented her from having too much fun.<\/p>\n

\"Bighorn<\/a>\"\"As Lupe watched Bighorn sheep, the mist turned to rain.\u00a0 The few people who had come up to Wilcox Pass earlier in the day were now slogging past Lupe and SPHP on the way back down the trail.\u00a0 The couple that had been following Lupe up turned around and retreated, too.<\/p>\n

SPHP finally persuaded Lupe to press on, leaving\u00a0the sheep to\u00a0enjoy their solitude.\u00a0 As Lupe\u00a0neared Wilcox Pass, a chill wind drove the rain down more fiercely.\u00a0 Lupe and SPHP were totally alone.\u00a0 That was awesome!\u00a0 The fresh breeze felt good, too, but the rain would have to let up pretty soon if Lupe was to remain up here for long.<\/p>\n

Lupe made it to Wilcox Pass.\u00a0 Conditions weren’t terrible, but they weren’t encouraging either.\u00a0 The vast and lonely pass was beautiful and mysterious beneath the sullen sky.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0stupendous panoramic\u00a0view that Lupe had come to see was at the end of a side trail to the SW, not right at Wilcox Pass itself.\u00a0 Even though it\u00a0appeared likely the view was going to be obscured by clouds and rain, Lupe and SPHP\u00a0set off on\u00a0the side trail.\u00a0 The solitary hike over\u00a0the\u00a0forlorn, broken wild tundra might have to be its own reward.<\/p>\n

\"Lupe<\/a>

The main Wilcox Pass trail is seen beyond Lupe and to the R. Staying on the main trail would have taken Lupe over the pass and down to Tangle Creek.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The commanding, panoramic view of the Athabasca Glacier and surrounding peaks Lupe was on her way to\u00a0see is perhaps 0.5 mile to\u00a01.0 mile SW of the main trail at\u00a0Wilcox Pass.\u00a0 The trail to the viewpoint climbs several small ridges, and goes through a series of lower areas, too, on the way.\u00a0 Lupe and SPHP made good progress to one of the higher ridges, where there was a large cairn.<\/p>\n

It was still windy, but thankfully, the rain was starting to let up.\u00a0 The clouds were lifting.\u00a0 Lupe could now see the summit of Mount Wilcox<\/a><\/span> (9,462 ft.)<\/span><\/strong>.\u00a0 Even better, off to the N was another patch of blue sky!\u00a0 It was bigger than the tiny patches of blue sky\u00a0SPHP had seen before.<\/p>\n

The last little valley to be crossed before reaching the final ridge was narrow and had a tiny stream flowing through it.\u00a0 Lupe crossed the stream and climbed up on the final ridge.\u00a0 The whole ridgeline featured tremendous views. \u00a0Lupe and SPHP followed the trail NW to another big cairn.\u00a0 This cairn appeared to be the end of the side\u00a0trail, and a fantastic spot to take in the panoramic view.<\/p>\n

Going a\u00a0short distance SW down the slope\u00a0from the cairn got Lupe out of the worst of the wind.\u00a0 At first, clouds still obscured the mountains surrounding the Athabasca Glacier.\u00a0\u00a0However, the now\u00a0huge hole in the clouds near Mount Wilcox held out the promise of clearing skies and splendid scenes\u00a0soon to come.\u00a0 Lupe and\u00a0SPHP got comfortable, and prepared to watch the big show.<\/p>\n

Lupe had made it to the viewpoint just in time.\u00a0 It was only a matter of a few minutes before blue sky started appearing over the Athabasca Glacier.\u00a0 The summit of Snow Dome<\/a><\/span> (11,483 ft.)<\/span><\/strong> was the first\u00a0to be revealed.<\/p>\n

For 40 minutes, Lupe and SPHP watched the changing scene.\u00a0 The blue sky tried hard, but never could reveal the summits of the other peaks around the Athabasca Glacier.\u00a0 Clouds clung to them.\u00a0 Sometimes it seemed like the peaks were creating more clouds all by themselves.<\/p>\n

It was all still gorgeous.\u00a0 SPHP was very glad that Lupe came up to Wilcox Pass and over to the viewpoint.\u00a0 What a shame it would have been to miss all this grandeur!<\/p>\n

Eventually the big patch of blue sky started losing the battle.\u00a0 More clouds were coming.\u00a0 The sky darkened.\u00a0 The big show was over, at least for now.\u00a0\u00a0It was time for Lupe to go.\u00a0 She had lots of fun on the way back exploring the heather.<\/p>\n

The blue sky had encouraged others to\u00a0start coming back up to Wilcox Pass, too.\u00a0 Soon Lupe and SPHP\u00a0were no longer alone.\u00a0 Sporadically, it rained again, but this time not hard enough to discourage everyone.\u00a0 Now, Lupe and SPHP were the only ones going down,\u00a0while others came up.<\/p>\n

Lupe was pleased and excited to see that the\u00a0Bighorn sheep hadn’t gone anywhere.\u00a0 They were still peacefully watching the passing parade.\u00a0 Lupe got a little more sheep watching in, too.<\/p>\n

When Lupe emerged from the forest at the Wilcox Pass trailhead again (2:47 PM), the clouds were nearly all gone.\u00a0 Blue skies and sunshine prevailed, and things had warmed up considerably (59\u00b0F).<\/p>\n

SPHP drove Lupe down to the Icefield Centre<\/strong><\/a><\/span>\u00a0across the highway from the Athabasca Glacier.\u00a0 The place was a madhouse.\u00a0 SPHP was fortunate to get a parking spot in the huge parking lot.\u00a0 The place was packed with vehicles, with lots more circling around looking for an opening.<\/p>\n

The views from the Icefield Centre weren’t as good as from high above in the Wilcox Pass area, but the scene was still magnificent.\u00a0 Now that their summits were in clear view, Lupe agreed to pose for a few more photos of the high snowy peaks surrounding the Athabasca Glacier.<\/p>\n

The rainy, misty morning was long gone, having finally given way to\u00a0this bright, sunny afternoon.\u00a0 Lupe had been close to the Athabasca Glacier, made it to Wilcox Pass, and seen glorious sights from on high.<\/p>\n

Well, Looper, it’s what, not even 3:15 PM, yet.\u00a0 What now?<\/em><\/p>\n

Since we are in the Canadian Rockies on a fine summer afternoon,\u00a0looks like\u00a0time for another adventure to me!<\/em><\/p>\n

The clever Carolina Dog was so right!\u00a0 Lupe and SPHP hopped in the G6, left the teeming Icefield Centre parking lot, and headed N on Icefields Parkway Hwy 93.\u00a0 When you are in the Canadian Rockies, the next big adventure is never far away!<\/p>\n

\"\"
Mount Athabasca<\/span><\/a> (11,453 ft.)<\/span><\/strong>.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Note:\u00a0Although there are many areas of superb beauty in the Canadian Rockies, the Wilcox Pass trail to the dramatic snow and ice-covered panoramic view of\u00a0Mt. Athabasca, Mt. Andromeda, the Athabasca Glacier, Snow Dome and Mt. Kitchener\u00a0is the most scenically rewarding half day hike Lupe and SPHP have found to date.<\/i><\/p>\n

The Wilcox Pass trailhead is located\u00a0less than 0.25 mile off the N bound side\u00a0of Icefields Parkway Hwy 93 along the gravel road that leads to the Wilcox Creek campground. The turnoff is just a mile or two N of the Banff and Jasper National Parks boundary at Sunwapta Pass, and just a couple miles S of the Icefield Centre\u00a0across from\u00a0the Athabasca Glacier.<\/i><\/p>\n

The Wilcox Pass trail is in good condition.\u00a0 The side trail to the viewpoint SW of the pass is easy to spot and follow.\u00a0 Total elevation gain is on the order of 1,400 feet.\u00a0 One section of the main trail is fairly steep, but most of it is only moderately strenuous.<\/em><\/p>\n

Another great trail to a glacier view is only\u00a010 minutes away.\u00a0 The Parker Ridge trail, which\u00a0is even shorter (and\u00a0less time-consuming) than the Wilcox Pass trail, switchbacks up to a spectacular view of the Saskatchewan Glacier.\u00a0 The Parker Ridge trailhead is\u00a0along the S bound side of Icefields Parkway Hwy 93 several miles S of the Jasper National Park and Banff National Park boundary at Sunwapta Pass.<\/em><\/p>\n
