Mount Fisher

Demanding Kootenay Range hike east of Cranbrook, with a rough approach and big summit views.

Mount Fisher is the serious hiking option near Cranbrook. The summit is high, the approach road is rough, and Wikivoyage rightly frames the top section as a scramble for experienced hikers.

Do not treat this as a casual town walk. With the right vehicle, weather, and fitness, it gives a much wilder day than Cranbrook's gentler local trails.
