Description:
At over 2100 meters, Polar Peak provides stunning 360-degree panoramic views of the surrounding area. This is your opportunity to experience this incredible hike with Duncan Maisels, an alpine-certified hiking guide (ACMG-certified).
Starting at the Timber Express chair (single ride lift ticket included), you climb up through Lost Boys Pass to the top of Elephant Head. From there, we will hike to Polar Peak along the Timber Bowl and Currie Bowl ridgeline. The trail offers spectacular views of Fernie, the Alberta border, and Lake Koocanusa. Please note that this hike is for adventurous and experienced hikers. The route has a short section with a feeling of exposure, a steep section with a wire cable to hold on to, and it is on uneven & rugged terrain. Hiking footwear is required.
