Description
We will follow the road allowance south before turning in and ascending the Escarpment. Proceeding through a level section of forest and descending across a scree slope, the trail continues across the base of the Escarpment before ascending to the top. Along the top it skirts McCluskey's Rock and descends a wide valley to reach the Ken Young Side Trail. We will take this side trail to 7B then follow the road back onto the main trail and re-trace our steps back the same way.
This time of year we can expect all types of trail conditions. Please be prepared with rain gear, icers and poles for those steep ascents and descents.
Bring water and a snack
Please no dogs
