A few important navigation tips
- Take left right after I mean right after snowmobile bridge at start to get to Twins summer lot
- When going on the Frost trail you will reach a clearing within point one miles, make sure you hang to the left that is where the trails. You will start going right to the peak when you hit a old sign that you can't read anymore. I tried to cut across and got into some of the worst spruce traps of my life. Probably went into four, and one I fell in over my head and it took me ten minutes to get out of it
- At the end of the Gale River Trail take a right on the road, then a left at the stop sign, then take your next right into the beaver brook parking area, go right though the parking area and follow the blue trail on you left to the parking area.
- Thank you also to the nice man that picked my up outside of Beaver Brook and drove me back to the Little River Road, got to love hitchin it in the mountains |
