Park at the pull off/trash bin at N53 14.621 W117 47.022 (150m west
of the Folding Mountain Campground) The trail head is 390m west of
the pull off at N53 14.448 W117 47.217 and is marked with a yellow
hiker sign. The trail is well maintained and ascends in a heavy
tree cover. Grades are moderate to steep so be prepared for a bit
of a workout and be sure to bring water. If you're looking for an
excuse for a rest breaks on the way up stop and look for
HTEG and FOLDING
MOUNTAIN caches.
Eventually the trail crests the ridge and breaks out into the
open offering some great views of the Athabaska River valley and
Jasper National Park to the west. The trail becomes relatively flat
to the cache. Total distance is 5km.
The key to reaping health benefits of red wine seems to be
moderate consumption. Drinking one glass a day for women and up to
two glasses a day for men may decrease the risk of heart disease,
cancer and stroke.
WHAT IS MODERATION? In North America, drinking in moderation
means one glass for women, and one to two glasses for men.
The definition of moderation is different in the United Kingdom
and European Union, however. The "sensible limits" in the UK and EU
are two to three glasses of red wine per day for women and three to
four glasses for men.

Further on and higher up is ON THE WAY
TO THE SUMMIT cache, from here one may as well go to
the summit and bag a find for the BRASS CAP
CACHE. You'll be looking for a "Brass Cap" survey
benchmark at N53 12.760 W117 42.286. This cache is a roving
virtual so don't be surprised that the coordinates on the cache
page don't match but logging of previous caps is permitted.
