Season: Year-round

Drive: Access from Glade: Head north on Hwy 3A towards Nelson. Turn right after the lumberyard at the Glade Ferry sign. Cross the Kootenay River on the Glade Ferry. Take the first right on Glade Road. When this road turns to gravel, continue on to the creek and park.

Trail: There are two ways up to the falls; one trail takes off on the left side of the creek and follows it up, the other starts on the right in the forest and joins up with the creek later along. The latter is recommended as it brings you directly under the falls unlike the first, which takes you to the top.

I would like to think of myself as a full time traveler. I have been retired since 2006 and in that time have traveled every winter for four to seven months. The months that I am "home", are often also spent on the road, hiking or kayaking. I hope to present a website that describes my travel along with my hiking and sea kayaking experiences.
