This short but steep trail climbs to the summit of Hailstone Butte at 2,310 metres. The trail ascends through open meadows and rocky slopes before reaching the exposed ridgeline and active fire lookout at the top. Expect steady but steep elevation gain, strong winds, and wide views over Plateau Mountain and the Livingstone Range. The route is generally easy to follow in summer, but snow or low visibility can make navigation more challenging. A Kananaskis Conservation Pass is required for parking within this area alberta.ca/kananaskis-conservation-pass
