This is one of the coolest hikes we do in the year. If you see yourself in the photo above, you know what it is and will remember this iconic trip. It's an incredibly diverse hike that takes us through pristine wilderness along some stunning rivers and lakes until we climb a (modest) mountain.
We'll be there during peak fall colours so this should be a very different experience to our last time tackling it in a blizzard. Last time we were there we saw plenty of beavers and this is one of the better locations we visit for wildlife spotting. Bears are active in the area although, with hunting season kicking off they may understandably be shy.
Make no mistake, this is a challenging hike - there's a decent amount of elevation and navigation is truly difficult at points but for most folks with a good level of fitness and adesire to push themselves, it's completely possible. If you have any questions about the suitability, drop us a message on Discord and we'll be glad to help you decide!
