Map 2: Map of Seep Creek Region & Trails, Willmore Wilderness Park
Willmore Wilderness Park, Rocky Mountains, Alberta, Canada

1. Knob above Seep Creek Camp. It's a very steep up, no trail. Start behind camp and keep climbing. Once on top, enjoy a pleasant stroll in an alpine meadow and a full panorama of the surrounding valleys and ridges. Return the same way or down a ridge, as shown, to the trail in the right branch of Seep Creek.

2. This route crosses the stream north of camp and goes up a valley to a saddle and finally to an alpine meadow that overlooks the south fork of Carson Creek. The trail continues from the overlook, drops into the South Fork of Carson Creek, rises again over a second saddle, and then drops down to the headwaters of Carson Creek and the main Carson Creek Trail on the North Fork.

2a. This is an alternate route to Carson Creek Overlook -- no trails, just follow the ridge.

3. Goat's Rest Knob and Ridge. Cross the south fork of Seep Creek, and begin to climb directly towards the obvious knob. Once up the ridge can be walked to its end and a different, cross-country return route can be selected.

4. Back Ridge - The back ridge is quite high, with very rough sheep trails once on top. It can be followed a long way and there are places where you can come down off the ridge to the valley behind the Seep Creek Camp Knob [#1]. A trace trail to the North takes you back to the south fork and there you will find a game/weak horse trail back to camp.

5. Zebra Mountain Ridge System -This is a steep climb up and an easy walk once up. An easy climb of Mt. Bazalgette [Mt.B] and a view of Zebra Mountain [ZMt.]. It's possible, but a very steep climb down or up the valley south of Mt. Bazlgette.
