Directions

Take Hwy 7 (Lougheed) to Dewdney , 8 km east of Mission . Where the highway crosses the CPR tracks , continue east on Hawkins Pickle Rd. to the end at the Inch Cr. hatchery where there is parking . Walk through the gravel pit and swing right to cross Norrish Cr. on the railway bridge or the Bailey bridge next to it .

Head north up the east side of Norrish , ignoring spur trails on left that just lead into the creek .

At about 1 km there is a cairn and the trail heads right into the timber , shortly climbs a hill into a grove of cedar .

Stay right at the next trail junction and then follow the trail , not flagged but obvious .

Details

The trail can be done as a loop of about 9km or 20 km but the 20 involves mostly logging road .
