Turn Right Here - Napoleon Route

This is where you leave the paved road on the Napoleon route. 'Brierley' describes this as a 'rough grass track'.

Brierley was right,i sure felt rough by the time i reached here

I was fine until the descent stage which caused my legs to quiver.

Bernard duffy · Apr 9, 2015

Going down was fine for me,but i did walk with some folk who found it very difficult.

is the pass open now or is that a summer photo?

paul.ferris · Apr 11, 2015

@kjbug The photo was taken April 17, 2013. The Napoleon route had been open for a short time but had to be closed again later because of more snow.

If I'm walking alone, go pass the crosses and to the right?

paul.ferris · Apr 18, 2015

@yolanda Mejia You will see a path around the cross. If in doubt wait a few minutes and someone else will be along.

@paul.ferris Thank you Paul, trying to hid my fear, but sometimes it comes out

I know the Lord wants me to do the walk and he will take care of me! plus all your reassurances help me a lot.

Starting 27/5

@yolanda Mejia The walk is really very straight forward. The bonus is that there is a steady stream of great people to help if you have need.
