This was a 13.2 mile red lining trip and I ended up only getting Shaw. Got stuck in a rain shower and as the thunder continued, I opted to head down. Trails are easy and in great shape. A good day was had.
I did see a group of three heading to Shaw with over night packs. A reminder that camping is not allowed in the conservation area. Please do your research before heading out. |
