Fullerton Loop-7 km return
213 m/692 ft elevation gain/loss 1.5 - 2.5 hrs
This trail starts about 1.5 km along the Elbow Trail, from the parking area at Allen Bill Pond. A short way along the loop trail is a Y junction. Taking the trail to the right leads to a long gradual ascent through the forest to the half-way point of the loop where you can view Moose Mountain and the group of mountains surrounding Banded Peak. The return trip skirts the edge of a steep hillside overlooking the Ranger Station and the Elbow Valley. http://www.braggcreek.ca/kananaskis/trails.htm
