Description

This access trail links the Moraine Park Trailhead to the Beaver Meadows Loops. It ascends from the trailhead, over the northern flanks of Eagle Cliff Mountain, across Bear Lake Road and eventually dead-ends at the Deer Ridge - Moraine Park Trail. The trail ascends at a manageable grade through pine forest and open meadowland with a couple of steeper sections toward the middle.
