Graphic from one of many hikes venturing up either Mitchell Creek trail or the Beaver Creek trail in Elkwater upon finishing work. At one point I stumbled on a giant mountain lion footprint fresh in a stretch of mud in the middle of and halfway up the Mitchell Creek trail. Elkwater was at one point considered the most densely populated with cougars locale in the world. Word on the trail is that government snuck them in, contradicting the Interpretive Centre’s display claiming they followed water to hunt new ground.
