Help me become a hiker!
It's just a shame how little I make use of the Rockies during the summer. I know basically nothing about hiking. I'm in reasonably good shape but I'm not a marathon runner. I want to do a bunch of hiking in and around the Rockies this summer; mostly just day hikes. I'm doing a 5-day moderate-difficult hike in the Andes in Peru in September and I want to get in hiking shape.
I'm looking for hike recommendations within about a 3hr drive of Calgary anywhere from 2-8hrs in length. Tell me about the hike and what I'll need; I'm woefully unequipped and uninformed. Help me CPers!!!
