Description

The snow is either gone or rotten so this will now be a hike at lower altitudes

  • hike right from the parking lot/meet-up spot
  • we will hike from there on drier trails along the Westsyde Bench and up over the ridges to viewpoints where we will have lunch and then we will continue along the ridges back to the parking area
  • a hilly route with much up and down (some fitness demands)
  • 10 km but a total of 1770 feet elevation gain over then distance
  • some nice viewpoints along the way
  • we may encounter some mud along the route
  • ticks will be out but so will the early wildflowers
  • an article on this hike – Batchelor Ridge Trek
  • also – Batchelor Ridge in February
  • we will revise the route if conditions are not good
  • watch the listing for updates
