Trip Reports
David Thompson Country and the Bighorn
Trip reports and GPS traces by objective for Abraham Lake, Nordegg, the Siffleur, White Goat, and the Bighorn Backcountry.
107 objectives indexed from 10 blogs, 34 of them with reports from more than one.
Each entry links every trip report, video, or GPS trace the indexed blogs published for that objective. Hover a link to see the report’s own title, which is how combined trips and traverses show what else they cover.
Where an objective appears in a guidebook, that is marked after the links with the book’s own grade — Kane and Nugara for scrambles, Don’t Waste Your Time for hikes. None of the three is published online, so the mark links to Adam Laycock’s page for that objective, which records the grade and little else. The route description is in the book.
