Rawson Lake Hike
Saturday, August 30th
As it was the last long weekend of summer, 11 members joined me at Rawson Lake. To our surprise, it was busier than normal.
We headed along the south shore section of Upper Kananaskis Lake Trail, the route winding and undulating in and out of every indentation of the shoreline. we stopped at the bridge at Sarrail Creek Falls and took in the sights and sound of the rushing water.
The trail immediately starts climbing and winding through old spruce forest. Just prior to the lake, the gradient of the trail eased a bit and walked a single plank boardwalk and we were welcomed to the majestic view of Rawson Lake backdropped by Mt. Sarrail.
Once we located a spot to have lunch, we were entertained by other hikers swimming in the lake. Which is a first, as the weather was calm and warm, not sure about the lake.
