Description

Come join us on May 23,2015 for a 13 k hike from the Balmoral trailhead to Blind Bay Bluffs. This hike has some steep climbs and steep sections. You will hike through forested areas and along the bluffs to reach several scenic viewpoints along the way including views over the entire South Shuawap. This hike should take about 5 hours to complete, allow an extra hour for breaks along the way and a much needed lunch break with plenty of opportunities for picture taking. This is an all day hike and you must be able to stay for the duration of the hike.
