Trail. Start for Kootenay Columbia Mountain but don’t climb up the back of Kootenay Columbia – instead continue north towards Red Mountain on the Coyote Swamp Trail. Pass some ore dumps on your left, the site of the old Evening Star Mine, the mine adit and turn left down the road I have called Coyote Swamp, reviving a name in Leo Telfer’s guide to hiking. Descend north heading for the smell of Coyote Swamp – a combination of many skunk cabbage and decaying vegetation. Pass the ruins of Bootie’s cabin. Continue north to the Coffee Run mountain bike trail (From the map: rated intermediate, links Full Monte with Columbia- Kootenay Road via undulating single-track. Elevation change 20m. Length 1.2km). Turn west and walk to Highway 3B to come out near the Rock Cut Pub for lunch. Continue back to Rossland on the Centennial Trail on the west side of Highway 3B.
