Then it continues on rather steep sections passing by various vertical walls used for climbing, the route continues and ends at the rocky bluff where del Quercus viewpoint and there opens a window of spectacular views of Howe Sound and the surrounding mountains, a true postcard landscape. After the incredible panoramic route the return to the car park near Lake Browning. It was a nice short hike hike!
