What an outing! We didn’t find the road to Crater Mtn.; but in the attempt to do so, we experienced an adventure in negotiating the 18 deep water bars that barred travel to the higher alpine on the logging road we were on. The day was clouded and Crater Mtn. was covered in mist. Once the mist temporarily lifted we could see that we were in the wrong place but not too far “as the crow flies”. Our objective then became going up a steep incline that led yet to a higher point and in doing so hiked through meadows covered in a smorgasbord of flowers with spectacular views of the Similkameen Valley below and other areas of interest that surrounded us.
