We are pleased to announce a new trail map for bouldering in Duncan, BC.
A new parking lot has been built for Mount Tzouhalem Park users. It is located 6381 Nevilane Drive. There is also lots of overflow street parking along the shoulder of Nevilane Drive, if the lot were to fill up.
Once parked, follow the trail into the forest and instead of going right on the Mountain bike trail, continue straight and slightly left until you start making your way left downhill. The path with curl around and you will find yourself at the beginning of the BC Hydro ROW. Follow the ROW under the power lines for 15 – 20 minutes until the original guidebook trail joins you on the ROW. Continue walking until you come to the trail marker, post #19, for the Awesome Trail. (Shown below)
Start along the Awesome trail, then take your first left and keep left at each fork after that (usually little cairns mark the way). The next major landmark is a huge wooden mountain bike ramp near a seasonal creek on the right-hand side of the trail. This should be visible three minutes after leaving the ROW. Keep following the flagging tape to a series of roped, steep sections; this is as difficult as the trek will get. After this section you will traverse the base of the bluff until you get to the No Opposition Boulder. From the ropes to No Opposition takes approximately 15 minutes.
Please be respectful of other park users and give the right of way to mountain bikers when you see/hear them coming.
