The Garibaldi Neve Traverse can be completed in both directions in 1-3 days. It connects multiple glaciers from the south end Diamond Head area to the north at Garibaldi Lake.

 

It begins with views of Atwell Peak just above the Red Heather Hut, ascending west and then north along a marked trail (BC PARKS) you reach the Elfin Lakes Shelter.

Spending the night at Elfin Lakes Shelter is a comfortable sleep with propane stoves, and spectacular views.

After you descend into ring creek you navigate around the west side of Opal Cone onto the Neve Glacier

Your surrounded by steep descents and expansive glaciers as far as the eye can see

I would recommend this traverse as an introduction to glacier travel with careful route finding
