Today, was a research day exploring the rough and rugged, gravel Cascade Hwy which is a back country route connecting the communities of Rossland and Christina Lake in the Kootenays. The mountain pass did not disappoint as it was an eye full of mountain scenery and snow capped peaks. No wildlife sightings unfortunately.
Stopped at the trailhead to the 7 Summits Trail and there was a group of mountain bikers gearing up for a downhill run. They seemed pretty stoked on the downhill run ahead of them on the Record Ridge Trail.
Many trails and mountain bike routes on this gravel highway.
