Description:
Aug 18th 2021. Road and trail conditions are very good. Directions on Trail Forks are very poor. Simply take Settler's Road to Nipika Resort (see directions on their website) Continue past the Resort to Baymag mine. At km 37.5 turn right up double track road and follow to trail head which is well signed. Mine is as km 38
30 minutes to Nipika from Radium Hot Springs. 30 - 40 minutes past Nipika to trail head. ACTIVE MINE ROAD. DRIVE WITH CAUTION. PULL OVER FOR LOADED MINE TRUCKS COMING OUT.
I would not consider this trail for biking - only hiking. Plenty of spring fed soft conditions which would quickly become mud pits and environmental damage to the alpine. Lots of berry bushes but very few berries this season.
