Spent another four days hiking the Ya Ha Tinda area with Chinook's sister, Arya (our other nine month old puppy).
This time I was determined to find the Upper Bighorn Falls BUT after five hours on various trails and 19km of hiking I came up short, i.e.: no luck finding the falls. However, I don't feel too bad since all the equestrian types at the campground had never found the falls either!
All told 40+/- km of hiking over the four days so I got some good exercise and bonded with my pup, Arya.

So, should I assume that Upper Bighorn Falls made a run for it under cover of darkness and is hiding out somewhere?
