About Mt.Cartier-Ghost Peak

The Mount Cartier Trail is about a 14 km long hike up an old horse trail to a lookout tower on top of Mount Cartier. The trail has some difficult spots along a steep side slope just before the first bridge. Up to this point it is good for Mountain Bike riding and Horse Riding. Currently the upper section of the trail has experience some heavy blow down and is impassable. At higher elevations in the late summer there can be a shortage of water, so take along extra supplies.
