We had studied the maps as well as listing places mentioned while doing Internet searches so that we could check out any interesting places. One such place was Midway, B.C., a very small town along the Crowsnest Highway. There were two sets of trails to chose from at Midway, one that followed the Kettle River and a second one that zigzagged its way up the side of a mountain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We tried the mountain trail first until vertigo told me that I would be better off following the river trail. The mountain trail was very narrow with no room to pass should we have met anyone along the way. Such a narrow path with no place to go but down should I lose my balance just made me more and more nervous. My fear of heights won out, so we turned around and carefully made our way back down. Back on flat ground, we followed the river trail and were rewarded with meeting a deer as well as a number of birds. After hiking for about twelve kilometres, it was time for a lunch before continuing on our way to our final destination for the day, Cranbrook, B.C.<a href=\"https:\/\/web.archive.org\/web\/20130928161851mp_\/http:\/\/rglongpre.ca\/pilgrim\/archives\/308?share=google-plus-1&amp;nb=1\"><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As we began to head towards home, in no hurry of course, we made sure to stop along the way in order to get in as much hiking as we could.
