Not quite half way up, but some views here make for a little rest stop. This was also a spot where there was a nice variety of wild flowers blooming
Just below the summit of the Salmo Creston Highway, a narrow STEEP road takes off to the NW. This road can be driven with 4X4 or quad, but it is very narrow in places and the surface is rocky (sharp rocks at times).
We hid these three caches in hopes of enticing our friends the Kootenay Pirates to celebrate their 10,000 find with a hike!!! These cachers epitomize the true spirit of caching. As well, no cache eludes them for difficulty or terrain. They are truly good friends.
The terrain is based on hiking from the highway -- you know we didn't (we quadded)!! If you hike, there is ample parking across the highway at a pullout. Just take care crossing the highway. Take plenty of drinking water, as streams are very limited.
You are looking for a micro with room for small items like pins.
Elevation here is 1786 metres.
