COYOTE SWAMP TRAIL / COFFEE RUN / CENTENNIAL TRAIL LOOP

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.

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.
