This one’s a threefer: Trek 17 miles to Lake Magog (far left) via Assiniboine Pass or Wonder Pass, then visit Sunburst Lake (near left) and appropriately named Cerulean Lake (right) on a 1.4-mile spur. Camp beside Magog (first-come, first-serve). Photographer Callum Snape recommends breaking up the trek with a night at Marvel Lake near the midpoint. Contactbit.do/MtAssiniboinePark
