Peggy has booked the cabin for 3 nights – starting on the Thursday. It works out to $350 per night for the whole cabin. It says capacity of 10 - 14. If we have 10 then it would be only $105 per person for 3 days. The hike is 9 km – 200 m elevation in the 1st half and then back down for the 2nd half. Starting point is in Peter Lougheed Provincial Park – Upper Kananaskis Lakes. The sleeping area is upstairs but there is one bedroom downstairs with one bunk bed in it. For whoever least likes climbing to the loft! Let me know if you are interested. Cheers, Annie
