Getting There:

From the town of Canmore, follow the signs toward the Nordic Center. Continue past the Nordic Center towards the Spray Reservoir. Eventually, you will be climbing up a hill on a gravel road that gets pretty dusty. You'll come across a parking lot on the right side of the road called "Goat Creek Day Use Area".

Additional Info:

This is a great hike for the winter time. It is extremely crowded in the summer so it is nice to get some solitude up on Ha-Ling. From Ha-Ling, head East along the ridge and Miner's Peak is technically on the left. There are 3 high points to the right (Called Miner 1, 2, and 3) which are easy to get to as well!
