Backpack. Two crazy dogs. A shocking amount of pollen. A few river crossings via logs. Mosquitoes. Thunderous waterfalls. An easy hike along Eel’s Creek, between Haltain and Stony Lake in Ontario. Three energetic ladies training for a big Banff adventure. CHECK! Now we just needed some elevation…
This is a truly picturesque hike at any time of year except the spring as you will be eaten by black flies who bite right through multiple layers. Bring your poles, and wear your gaiters and hiking boots, and bring lots of water and a snack!
DISTANCE: 12km return
DIFFICULTY: Easy

PARKING: We accessed this by boat and hiking, however you there is a small parking lot at Northeys Bay Road where it crosses Eels Creek, on the east side.






Yep, that’s pollen.
