well it was a success. #94. went up the logging road took a left at the first cairn. then the next cairn went left again(do not follow the surveier tape the 4 different colors) keep left. follow this logging road all the way and yo will see little cairns everywhere (well more than other bushwacks) then there are spilts, your on your own sorry. I believe when we came out we realized we should have gone left at a junction but who knows. we did get caught in some spruce but so be it it was nothing like the mishap on scar I had on the way down. there are herd paths everywhere it seemed. well towards the top we found the definite one and it lead through some thick spruce-this is the way look to your feet if you can see them! then you are there. it took us 1:30 hours up and 1 hour down. good luck and have fun. |
