E.C. Manning Provincial Park, British Columbia; The Skyline Trail




The Skyline Trail in E.C. Manning's Provincial Park offers jaw-dropping views of a number of Cascade Peaks, including Hozomeen Mountain and its double-summit (8,186 ft-msl), located 14 miles south just across the U.S./ Canada border in Washington State. The peak was formed through a combination of geological processes over millions of years. It's primarily composed of metamorphic rock, which was shaped by intense heat and pressure. The dramatic appearance is due to uplifting and erosion.
