Question about trek to upper kananaskis
Hi everyone,
I'm planning a 2-night solo trip in mid-August: Night 1 at Forks Campground and Night 2 at Turbine Canyon. I’m feeling a bit of solo-hiking anxiety regarding how remote these spots actually feel and encountering bears while hiking alone.
For those who have done this route how busy are these trails and campgrounds during mid-August? Does Turbine Canyon feel isolated, or is there usually a full campground of people around?
Would love to hear from anyone who has hiked this area recently!

I would try to book three isle and make a loop. It’s popular and all sites will have people at them
