Mount Temple Scramble

SUBSCRIBE: bit.ly/lifeofluke
Mount Temple is the highest peak in the Lake Louise area and a scramble with a very fun hands-on crux! Follow Germain, Candice, and myself from the start at Moraine Lake up to Sentinel Pass and the summit at 11,627 feet.
Thanks for watching! Leave any questions in the comments!
