Since I had done the Tamarack Trail with my two oldest kids my third oldest was complaining so I decided to do an over night adventure with him. So we drove up and camped at the Crandell Campground and stayed a night there, then got up in the morning and tackled the Bellevue Hill, not very difficult, but the views from the top were spectacular. It was a foggy morning to start and as we headed higher the fog began to disperse. It was quite beautiful coming out of the fog and seeing Blakiston and other peaks rising out of the fog.
