I know I may be late to the table on this, but felt that I should add my two cents on the Sea to Sky Trail link to Nairn Falls (“,” Pique, Nov. 7). I must have missed the engagement.
After riding the trail route from 撸奶社区to Pemberton through the decades, I feel it is important to keep the experience as remote and engaging as possible. The proposed route that runs along the west side of Highway 99, is not, in my mind, appealing to the recreational user.
The interface with Highway 99 and the railway, as well as a compost facility, storage yard and gun range, is littered with visual, odorous and noisy highlights.
Although the alternate route on the east side of the Soo/Green rivers would be more costly and more difficult to build with the bridge needed to connect, the long-term vision and natural beauty of the experience would be appreciated and utilized more.
So I encourage a revisiting of this decision on the routing of the Sea to Sky Trail to reconsider and create something special like the Gordon’s Garden section. I think he might have wanted it that way.
I would also be able to help raise some additional funds to make this happen. Got skin in the game.
