2 Night Backcountry Hiking to Lake Alderson
奥尔德森-卡休峰的点评
点评：My 13 y/o son and I performed this hike by parking the car at Tamarack Outdoor in Waterton and taking their shuttle up to Cameron Lake trailhead. Shuttle ride was well worth the price and the driver provided helpful hiking details on the way up. Overnight parking is free and unrestricted in Waterton providing that you purchased a park pass. When carrying backcountry camping gear - highly advisable to top up your water bottles at summit lake. The steady climb from summit lake to the Carthew summit itself consumes more water than I expected. Once at the Carthew summit, the next water source is within 30 mins on a downward trail trajectory (upper Carthew lake).
Alderson Lake campground has 4 standard tent pads in great condition. Three out of four pads have some tree protection for shade/wind. The last pad has a great mountain and lake view but the trade-off is higher exposure (no shade/wind protection). Outhouse is clean, reasonably tolerable smell, and has a new conveyer foot pump system. The campground is very close to the lake and the lake itself is calm and majestic. The mountain walls surrounding it are exquisite. Every few hours you will hear the occasional rumble of rocks falling from erosion. We stayed 2 nights at this campground so that we could enjoy one full day enjoying the lake. Would advise other back country hikers to do this as spending a day at lakeshore is very relaxing. Lots of trout in the lake if you want to add that extra weight to your pack. My only major gripe about Alderson lake is a). No picnic tables! (such an oversight) and b) Poor signage. You really have to search to find the bear lockers. The bear lockers (4 in total) are in good shape and located in a small depression that is not too far away. This small depression can become a very large puddle of water in heavy rain making the lockers become an island in the middle🫤. Don’t be too alarmed to hear rustling in the bushes in the early morning at camp as deer tend to visit in the early morning hours. For one of our nights we were the only ones in the campground which was unusual considering the weather was hot and sunny and still August peak season.
If heavy rain makes you pack up earlier than expected, rest assured that the hike from Alderson campground to Waterton is 6.8km on a gentle downward slope. It took us about ~2.5hrs to complete in heavy rain. There are flush toilets and garbage cans at the trail exit in Waterton.

翻译：我和 13 岁的儿子将车停在沃特顿 (Waterton) 的塔玛拉克户外 (Tamarack Outdoor)，然后乘坐班车前往卡梅伦湖步道起点，进行了这次徒步旅行。乘坐班车非常值得这个价格，司机在上山的路上提供了有用的徒步旅行细节。只要您购买了公园通行证，沃特顿的过夜停车即可免费且无限制。携带野外露营装备时 - 强烈建议在山顶湖加满水瓶。从山顶湖稳步攀登到卡修山顶所消耗的水比我预期的要多。到达卡修山顶后，下一个水源将在 30 分钟内沿着向下的轨迹（卡修湖上游）到达。
奥尔德森湖露营地有 4 个标准帐篷垫，状况良好。四分之三的垫子具有一定的树荫/防风保护功能。最后一个垫子可以看到很棒的山景和湖景，但代价是暴露程度更高（没有遮阳/防风）。外屋干净，气味可以忍受，并有一个新的传送脚踏泵系统。露营地离湖很近，湖本身平静而雄伟。周围的山壁精美绝伦。每隔几个小时，您就会偶尔听到岩石因侵蚀而掉落的隆隆声。我们在这个露营地住了两晚，这样我们就可以享受一整天的湖景。建议其他偏远地区的徒步旅行者这样做，因为在湖岸度过一天非常放松。如果你想给你的背包增加额外的重量，湖里有很多鳟鱼。我对奥尔德森湖唯一的主要抱怨是a）。没有野餐桌！ （这样的疏忽）和b）标志不佳。你真的必须搜索才能找到熊储物柜。熊储物柜（共4个）状态良好，位于不远的一个小凹陷处。这个小洼地在大雨中可能会变成一个很大的水坑，使储物柜变成中间的一座孤岛🫤。清晨，不要太惊慌地听到营地灌木丛中的沙沙声，因为鹿往往会在清晨出现。有一个晚上，我们是露营地里唯一的人，考虑到天气炎热、阳光明媚，而且仍然是八月的旺季，这很不寻常。
如果大雨让您比预期提前收拾行李，请放心，从奥尔德森露营地到沃特顿的徒步旅行全程 6.8 公里，坡度平缓。在大雨中我们花了大约2.5小时才完成。沃特顿的步道出口处设有抽水马桶和垃圾桶。
