Coquihalla Instructions

Why do this ride: Part of the Kettle Valley Railway (KVR). Brookmere historical water tower (we missed it)

Difficulty: Straightforward except the final part back to Coquihalla Summit parking lot (see picture with notes).

Other notes:  We forded the Coquihalla River to follow pipeline route per instructions. Maps do show the official route continuing closer to highway; we looked (see gremlin in GPX) but could not find it and got stuck in deadfall. The pipeline route works but has some steep grades. Definitely not railway grade.
