Goat Ridge, Sky Pilot, Mount Habrich Loop Map

This loop utilizes the PEtgill Lake, then Goat Ridge Trail to link up to where the Skyline Ridge Trail meets with Harry's Trail. You then follow the ridge up towards Co-pilot and can choose whether or not to summit Sky Pilot. The route then descends through Stadium Glacier and along the Sky Pilot Trail through the sub-alpine. We then link up to the Sky Pilot Habrich Traverse following the ridge leading to the base of Habrich, and the Climber's Ascent Trail. Following the ridge west, we link up to the Neverland Falls area. From here, the trail network will allow you to descend towards the upper station of the Sea To Sky Gondola.
