I’m not saying this can’t be done in 1:15, I’m just saying I don’t think I could do it in that time if I had a dirt bike. Awesome hike, but realistically plan for 2 hours each way.

I ran about 2/3 of it. The first 4km and last 4km stretches are double track with river rocks so be wise in foot placement.

Route from Golden Ears to Blanshard is a difficult Mountaineering Route that requires vertical bushwacking, exposed ridgeline scrambling, roped vertical climbing and roped rappelling.

Started the hike at around 7:30 am. It was pouring for the first hour or so. Took the East Canyon Trail to Viewpoint Beach. Hiked back on the trail to East-West Connector bridge. Crossed the bridge to get on West Canyon Trail. We took a detour to Lower Falls viewpoint. Beautiful viewpoint and unique view compared to one from Lower Falls trail. Took the Menzies trail back to Gold Creek parking lot. Hike to Lower Falls viewpoint from West Canyon trail was the highlight for me.

Our first overnight hike and this spot did not disappoint! Pretty quiet on the trails when we left at 10am. Crossed from west to east canyon at the bridge. Trail opened up and then crowded in at about 6km. Ended up off trail and bushwhacking a. It, but found our way back. Quiet beach, most spots are away from the water but we grabbed a nice spot right beside. So lovely! !

One of my favourite hikes! Clearly marked hike with lots of viewpoints. Had three kids in tow so this hike could be done much faster as well.
