After our Bankhead excursion, D and I wanted to check out a trail that passed along the edge of the airstrip beside the Trans-Canada highway and continued to Cascade Mountain. It turned out to lead to the bottom of the waterfall that is seen running down Cascade Mountain most of the year, and despite being a short (but very steep) climb... it was ultimately pretty anti-climatic:
