Hiking to Bald Hills High Summit(or Second/Third Summits)

Myself at the Bald Hills Higher Summit.

The Bald Hills higher summit hikes are certainly worth the extra effort if your original plan was just to go to the Bald Hills hike lookout.
Hiking Time: We stopped hiking at the lookout to eat and make sure any sweat had dissipated before going on to windy altitudes, but you could probably add half an hour or less to make it to the high summits.

To continue hiking on to the higher Bald Hills summits, you simply keep following the clear narrow hiking trail up. After the first summit, you will hike down a basin and then back up again.

Hikers descend down the basin from Bald Hills High summits.
As mentioned on the previous page, your focus on the hiking path just before reaching the second Bald Hills summit should be at least somewhat on the horizon. The mountain edge will creep up on you and you will find yourself peering over an edge to very far below. If you have trouble with heights, this particular hiking section will require extreme caution.

Be sure to be well rested, and have proper footwear, clothing, food and water while taking on the Bald Hills High Summit Day Hike. This is a Jasper Hike not to be missed.
