Zeverly Rapids and Wanatango Falls 11/12/16

This weekend's trip we chose Zeverly Rapids and Wanatango Falls on the Fredrickhouse River. To access Zeverly Rapids take Potter Road on highway 11 just north of the hamlet of Tunis, continue passed the Tunis Power Plant and down Mann road about 10 kms. Mann road was surprisingly in excellent condition with only light washerboard and next to no mud. You will then make it to t bridge over Zeverly Rapids. We tried our luck with fishing to no avail so instead we sat back and enjoyed the view and had a fire.



We next hiked to Wanatango Falls. A relatively short hike (1.6kms) the trail is on the south east side of the Zeverly Rapids bridge. The trail itself was fairly muddy and had a lot   of waterholes, there wasn't much elevation. The path will be on the right side of the trail and leads down to the portage trail around the falls. We enjoyed the beautiful scenery around the portage trail and falls and had another fire to cook lunch on which consisted of beans and wieners and chilli, we tried to get some fishing in but again caught nothing.

 

 So we sat back and absorbed the sounds and sights, when it began to get dark we returned to the vehicle and drove back,we were treated to one more sight: an amazing sunset.
