Still in its infancy, the Chetwynd Outdoors Society is committed to continuing its restoration of a decommissioned fire tower on Bickford Mountain. I hiked up on Saturday with four other members of the group to document how the tower fared in our brutal northern winter and begin planning a work bee later in the summer.
There was no shortage of lingering snow. Nearly all were prepared with gaiters and waterproof hiking boots and layers for the wind and rain. A tough slog up the melting trail and over a swollen creek was worth the view from the tower and summit.
