Crawford Lake - Trail - 19 KM - 7th August 2016

Rattlesnake Point has some excellent hiking trails and the walk along the edge of the escarpment is peaceful and not too challenging. The views are really amazing and add to the enjoyment of the outting. At the beginning of the trail, at the southern most point of Rattlesnake Point, there is a staircase that allows one to climb down to the base of the escarpment. Here, some caves can be found, and the steps provide a good point of view of the cliffs and some of the climbers practicing their climbing skills on the cliffs. Climbing can be done on the cliff face at various points where anchors can be seen along the rim of the cliffs. Along the cliffs you can watch soaring turkey vultures glide through the Nassagaweya Canyon riding on the updrafts.
