The trailhead for this hike is very close to the 14km marker on the Powderface Trail Road and for parking you have to pull off the road where the shoulder flattens about 300m South of the Trailhead. We had five cars.

We were not sure about the weather as the nine of us setout from the trailhead through the logged out area.
The trail is well defined with a few creek crossing. You were presented with the option of using the shaky tree, rock hoping or just wading through.

We changed in and out of rain gear numerous times and the sky was overcast and not very encouraging on the way up to the summit of Belmore Browne.



Looking South we reach the first flat spot on the way up

After a short break we decided to go to an intermediate high point between BB Pk and Peak 403471 and have lunch.

During lunch we decide due to weather conditions to not continue to our original planned destination. We descended via the skree bowl. During the descent some changed back into raingear. As we completed the skree descent we were surprised the blue skies opened up we had a pleasant stroll along the creek and back to the cars.
