After talking about it for years, Emma and I are going to Kakwa Falls this summer.
I have taken July 2-3 off work and Emma is done school things on June 29th. So our current plan is to do the trip from July 1-3, then stay with friends Chris (keys down elevator shaft guy) and Breanne at Gregg lake July 4-5, which is 30 minutes north of Hinton to do some fishing and hammock-ing.
You are all invited to join us. We will be accessing it by driving pretty much to Grand Prarie then heading south on the two lakes road...I think. I’ve heard rumour of other ways to access the area starting from Grand Cache but that will take some exploring first.
I have no idea what is involved with getting to Kakwa. I’ve heard it was a road at one point but is now a bunch of giant pot holes and a few river crossings. I can give no suggestion as what kind of vehicle capabilities you should have, but I would not be surprised if water levels were high so maybe check your axle seals and don’t be pissed off at me if you get water in your cab.
post up if you are interested in joining or have any trail info.
