Description
Please be prepared with icers’s or snowshoes. We will park on the Osprey-Blue Mountains Townline at the Clearview Townline at km 44.5. The white blazed trail immediately climbs the escarpment along a narrow winding forested path. At a mid-elevation plateau, the trail and forest open up. We will take the Standing Rock and Caves Side Trail which involves moving up through narrow crevices and some climbing between huge rock formations. Make sure you bring crampons if not wearing snowshoes! We will stay on the white blazed trail hiking past Eagle Cres. parking area and then around to the Singhampton Side Trail, looping back down the white blazed trail to the cars.Bring a snack or lunch and water.
