We’ll hike with cleats past a series of waterfalls along the Evan Thomas trail. We’ll hike from forested trails to an open valley before closing in on a series of three waterfalls. The final waterfall, the Green Monstor, requires hikers to hang onto a rope along a ledge so may not be accessible to all. We backtrack from this waterfall and climb to beautiful views of the Kananaskis Valley and look for a sunny spot for lunch.
