WHEN:
- Saturday, June 7th
Leaving CCC parking lot at 6.00 am, with approximate return time of 10.00 – 11.00 pm
Address: 8704 Millwoods Rd NW, Edmonton, AB, T6K 3J3
WHERE:
- Nordegg, AB
WHAT:
- Thompson Creek Falls has a moderate rating with some incline and rocky terrain so bring good footwear. It is a shorter 9km hike (roughly 4-5 hours) so we can afford to take our time and go at our pace. There are stunning views along the way to stop and take lots of pictures with a grand finale of a nice waterfall at the end!
