Path Type
Point to Point
This trail starts a bit beyond the second trailhead for Nihahi Ridge Trail off of Little Elbow Trail. You'll traverse a relatively short steep section through mature evergreen forest, then drop down into the dry creekbed. The trail winds a bit in and out of the trees and across some islands. Note that this trail is only maintained about 2.4km/1.5mi from the start by Alberta Parks (as mapped here), although you may elect to continue trekking up the creek. Some will choose to continue up to Mt. Fullerton or traverse scree up to the backside of Nihahi Ridge.
