Moderate glacier climb of one of the Canadian Rockies major peaks, in Jasper National Park. Standard North Glacier route, is a classic, if non-technical line consisting mainly of steep glacier travel in various conditions, depending on how late in the season it is being used. It is not unusual to see other parties on the route, or even at the summit, at the same time. The North Glacier route has become the most popular ascent in the Canadian Rockies for climbers attempting their first big alpine climb.
