This is a classic alpine route that begins at the top of the Sea to Sky Gondola in Squamish, BC and travels up the Shannon Basin to the Stadium Glacier and high point in the area, Sky Pilot Mountain. It involves some easy glacier travel and class 4 scrambling to summit the peak, but the majority of the route is non-technical. Can be done very quickly if snow conditions are good!
This is the classic version of the traverse around Wedgemount Lake north of Whistler, BC which starts on the Wedgemount Lake trail and follows a long, exposed ridge from Mount Cook to Mt Weart before descending back down to the lake and returning via the same trail. Involves some class 4 scrambling on the ridge but does not require any glacier travel or ropes, making it doable as a solo testpiece.
