Othello-Quintette Tunnels near Hope

> DEWDNEY MULE TRAIL

· · · · · · · · · · · ·

DECADES BEFORE the railway blasted through the Coquihalla Canyon, a more discreet trail was cut on the slopes above the emerald-hued river by surveyor Edgar Dewdney. Beginning in 1860, he and a group of Royal Engineers started clearing a route that eventually led from Hope to Fort Steele, near the present site of Cranbrook in the East Kootenays. The Dewdney Mule Trail intersects with the Kettle Valley Railway on both sides of the Othello Tunnel complex and makes for a fascinating loop hike.
