General Directions and Orientation
(15-20 min walk from parking to La Bête)
1. Start on Lover’s Leap trail. When it turns and heads uphill to the left, instead head downhill
2. You will soon hit a very old over-grown road. Turn left and walk along the road.
3. Follow the (very) old road until it crosses a creek, turn left just before the creek crossing, and follow the faint winding trail along the creek (keeping the creek on your right).
4. Just a few meters after you pass a ~5 m high waterfall, you will find the boulders on the other side of the creek.
5. Head pretty much straight uphill (no trail) to get from Tracking to La Bête.
6. Continue up-hill, angling about 45 degrees to the left to find Orthanc.
7. Mo-no-rail, Flesh Eater, Triangle Therapy, The Expanse, I Miss Us, etc. are just 20 m up the hill from the trail (and visible through the trees)
