Due to unexpectedly deep snow, we zig-zagged around Read's Ridge which presented a number of challenges with deep snow and loose scree.
The best part about travel is when places exceed expectations. I've summarized the four places that stood out from the 44 countries we have visited.
Evan Thomas Waterfalls is a mostly modest hike (other than the climb into the canyon) with some spectacular icefalls along the entire route.
Jura Creek is a nice hike as it's close to Calgary, moderate in effort, and provides some beautiful views as well as a unique slot canyon.
Arnica Lake is a challenging winter stroll due to the elevation gain including a km long climb out of the valley at the end, but the sweeping views are amazing.
Despite a -21C weather start, it was a beautiful relaxing stroll with great views of the Hopi pictographs, icefalls, hoodoos, and a cave.

Despite doing this trail a number of times in the summer and winter we ended up taking a wrong turn at the start which added a half hour to the journey.
Fullerton Loop is a relatively short and easy trail that is close to Calgary and offers some nice vistas of the Kananaskis Range and along the Elbow River.
