Write Up:We enjoyed lunch overlooking the Frank Slide from April 30, 1903.
Such an impressive view. Following lunch we hiked the interpretative
trail circuit and Deb read the pertinent historical facts at each
stopping point. What a devastating event the slide was. We found
out the slide in some places was over 150 metres feet deep. Huge
boulders littered the slopes. We then proceeded to hike the north
rim which included good views of Turtle Mountain and also walked
through forested areas on the way to Bellevue and back. It was a
great introduction to the Crowsnest Pass!
Saw only one other person on the Rim Trail.
