Description

We will park at km 81.1 on Windy Lane Drive in the Beaver Valley section.
We will start hiking south over Bowles Hill to meet up with the Valley Crossover Side Trail.
Following the sidetrail, we hike towards the Beaver Valley Ski Club and crossover County Road 30 to a steep ascent.
At the top, reaching County Road 13, we retrace our steps back to the ski club
eventually following the Kimberley Forest Side Trail.
We continue hiking north until meeting the white blazed trail at km 83.1.
From here, we hike south back to the cars.
Along the way are many magnificent panoramic views of the Beaver Valley
including the cliffs of Old Baldy and Kimberley Rock.
Bring lunch and plenty of water.
