While summer winds down, the hiking season quietly shifts into one of its most stunning periods. The cooler days of late August and early September offer a refreshing opportunity to explore hidden valleys and high alpine ridges. Larch trees flare up with breathtaking glory as their blazing yellow needles contrast sharply against a deep sapphire sky, snow kissed peaks, and the sparkling waters of a hidden glacial lake.
It is not too late, with Canadian Mountain Holidays you can still capture the magic of themountains with trips starting August 20, 23, 26, 29, September 1, 4 and 7, 2007.
