Itinerary description

Good hike through Crows Nest National Park with views of Perseverance Dam. Elevation data did not pick up the hike data. Once you get to the summit where you get views of Perseverance Dam, head slight left to follow along the base of the small cliffs to view the caves. Otherwise you can bypass this and continue along the ridgeline.
