    Route Description for Skogan Pass Hike

    From the Mount Lougheed Viewpoint, follow the Skogan Pass track on the left. Gain elevation gradually as you hike towards the pass. The path is clear and easy to follow, making this steady uphill effort less technical than routes of similar statistics. Views begin to grow as you make your way up to the pass, and you will be greeted with expansive views when you reach your objective.

    Getting to the Skogan Pass Hike Trailhead

    Take exit 98 off the Trans Canada Highway in Dead Man’s Flats. Head southbound towards the quarry from the exit and join George Biggy Sr Road to reach the day-use area and Mount Lougheed Viewpoint.
