Description
Evelyn Creek/Skyline Trail is found on the right (north), in the fir forest along Bald Hills Trail, 2.1 miles from the Bald Hills Trail trailhead at Maligne Lake. Going right onto Evelyn Creek/Skyline Trail, the trail continues in the thick fir forest and is basically flat for the first 0.8 miles. It then descends towards Evelyn Creek and veers right (north) to follow the creek downstream for about 0.7 miles. The trail runs near, but not next to the creek that is to the left (west). Evelyn Creek/Skyline Trail ends at Skyline Trail, very near the Evelyn Creek Trail Camp.
