The trail is used daily by many cyclists,hikers,and equestrians who all wish to continue across the river canyon ,and fully enjoy a trail which at the moment has limited use. The bypass route has a gate allowing only hikers to participate in the beauty of the area.The trestle is immensely high and is one of the true wonders of the age of steam,logging, and of the railway's importance in Canada. Men who built these structures knew of no obstacles.

I'm going to return a few times during the summer and see how the restoration is proceeding. I really can't fathom how much work needs to be done!
