We'd been hearing about the delights of Monica Meadows for a couple of years now. In 2006 we opted to visit Jumbo Pass in the same area and last year the road was closed all summer. This year we finally got to Monica!! This trail equals anything I've ever hiked. It's not too long, has a very easy access and the views at the top are unbelieveable. The viewpoint looks out at dozens of glaciers - too many to really count! Another benefit is the fact that the trail passes through a meadow which just happened to be at its peak blooming period this week. We're heading back there in the fall to enjoy the larch trees. Saskatchewan readers - if you're visiting us in the Koots be prepared for a 600 m gain, 8 km hike because I'm dragging you up here - it's just too good to not see.
