Tom Snow Trail South #12 Traditional Cache

Tom Snow Trail South Series is a collection of caches along a pleasant trail (a couple of small hills as you cross drainages) that wanders through an amazing conifer forest. The trail has a few drainage crossings along the way depending on the time of year, so bring along the trekking poles to make the easy crossings.

N.B. As of September 1st, 2015 this may be a seasonal access cache due to the now boggy nature of the cache site. Try only during the winter months.

Tom Snow Trail South Series are regular sized matchstick containers with only a cache note and log, so please be sure to bring along a writing instrument. Each of the caches in the series can be found a few meters off the main trail in a winter friendly caching location. Be sure to bring along adequate hiking supplies as the turnaround point is about 5 km NW of the West Bragg Creek trailhead.

Please be gentle with the containers and do not over tighten the tops (just a nice snug seal) as they might crack in the colder weather. Come out and enjoy a lesser travelled trail!

About the Tom Snow Trail

The Tom Snow Trail is approximately 20 km in length and starts at the Station Flats parking lot on Highway 66 and takes you back along the highway towards the bridge over the Elbow River near the Allen Bill Pond. A section of the trail can be extremely wet at different times of the year. The west end of the trail is at the Dawson PRA, which can also be accessed year-round.
