Bearpaw Sea Trail

A difficult one-way trail linking prairie tablelands with valley-bottom habitats across the West Block.

Route overview

Bearpaw Sea Trail in West Block.

Bearpaw Sea Trail explores a broad range of Grasslands habitats over ten official one-way kilometres. It has two published access contexts, but neither creates an automatic shuttle. BuddieHikes must require hikers to define their transportation and endpoint plan before departure. The route should not inherit temporary access assumptions from 70 Mile Butte Trail, whose condition and construction status require separate verification.
