You can return that way or go down a steep scree slope to Lake Galatea, I think it is...then down to the Kananaskis river. You'll then have a level hike back to the start point, or hitchhike to the village at Kananaskis if tired.

Great hike! The pass is Guinn Pass, named after the Guinns who own and operate Boundary Ranch, just off highway 40 across from the golf course. If you hike this route, the best way back is along Terrace Trail South, along the front edge of Mt Kidd back to the village.
