Mica Mine Trail (Valemount)

July 22, 2024 @ 8:00 am - 5:00 pm

Explore the old mine site where in the 1890s horses were used to haul Mica down the mountain.
The trail and cat-track were updated in the early 1990’s. This strenuous hike near Valemount
leads to the old mine site then onto the ridge which can be traveled for a while for views of the
Cariboos. It is over 1100m of elevation gain on a steep rough trail. Folks will need a vehicle with
decent clearance to get us up the first 9km to the parking area. Participants should be fit and
bring lots of water. More details on the hike can be googled.
I am somewhat flexible on the date, see what kind of interest there is. Heck, you can even bring
your dog, just bring water for them.
