Description

Follow Wishbone trail south from Maskinonge Lake parking lot in Waterton National Park approximatly 6 km. Take the junction to the east (there is no sign, but the junction is obvious)and follow the trail to a stupendous view of where the prairies meet the mountains. Gorgeous views of Upper, Middle and Lower Waterton lakes are had as well from the top. The complete route is only 16 km long and is well worth the effort.

Thanks to Ryan Simpson for this description.
