Kakwa Park, BC and Bastille Creek

The Rocky Mountain Range exits Alberta at Intersection Mountain. So for me to walk the entire Rocky Mountain Range would require that I climb Intersection Mountain. This is the most daunting aspect of such a hike. The reason is that Intersection Mountain is remote. To its east lies the Willmore Wilderness and West of intersection is Kakwa park. I have considered access to Intersection mountain from both east and west. Topographical maps show that the closest access might be from the BC side. I am hope to find a trail that follows Bastille Creek up into the Sheep Pass. There is no trail marked on my 1:250,000 map but I still think there might be one. On June 14, 2009 I finally had a chance to visit the area see what was there for myself. To get there I turned north off of Highway 16 onto a forestry road that is the only access that I know of into Kakwa Park. This road would also get me into the vicinity of Bastille creek. However I only got 12 km down the forestry road and found that the road was flooded at Humbug Creek. I thought it prudent at that point to not proceed on any further. My next option was to explore access through the Willmore Wilderness. That will be my next entry.
