Very simmilar the the East Van method. The other method I like to use requires...well, and orange vest, and a hard hat.


Heh, you too eh?

hmm i tried that link with directions to blue hawk mine a bunch of times it doesnt seem to work, do you have any other directions or maps?

ive searched on the internet but cant find much except its on blue grouse mountain.. any help would be greatly appreciated

Hmm... The link just worked for me. Ok, here's the directions copied from that link. There's coordinates as well, if you have GPS.

How to get to Blue Hawk Mine:

* from Kelowna, take the bridge towards West Kelowna & Westbank
* continue for 1.7km
* turn right onto Westside Road
* continue for 7.0km; keep straight at Bear Creak Park
* continue for 1.7km
* turn left onto Bear Creak Main
* continue for 2.1km; keep straight at Blue Grouse summit trail
* continue for 5.0km past the lumber yard
* turn right towards the motorcross lower pits
* continue for 0.6km towards the parking area
* turn right onto the logging road
* continue for 1.2km; this road gains quickly in elevation
* turn right at the bend
* continue for 1.7km; the road should be smoother now
* keep straight at the intersection
* continue for 0.9km past the swamp on your right
* keep straight at the old cabin
* continue for 0.5km into the clearcut area
* keep straight at the intersection
* continue for 0.2km past the clearcut area
* turn right down a small trail (you may need to park here and walk)
* continue for 0.2km down the hill
* the Blue Hawk mine is on your left going into the hillside:
49° 59' 02" N
119° 30' 59" W
965 meters

there is an abandoned hotel right on the water near 'The Sails" called the Willow I think. Will be torn down soon. The high school listed in the LDB has been torn down and replaced with a new school.

There is/was (?) an locomotive repair shop and a railway station in town that I and some members of UEA have explored in Nelson, two years ago.


Get there soon

Grab some photos before it's too late. Any links to building pics ? Was it built in '54 or just used since then as a diesel shop?
