Chester Lake Snowshoe Trail

Location: Peter Lougheed Provincial Park, Alberta
Date: February 15, 2014
Hiking Distance: 7.4 km
Elevation Gain: 315 meters
Although a very popular trail in both the summer and the winter, the area up and around Chester Lake is one of my favorites. Initially, the trail is a fair climb but then levels out as one approaches the lake through the meadows.
