This trail is about 2.5 hours east of Prince George, BC in the lovely community of McBride, BC. In this adventure, we hike up Paradise Ridge. The trail starts right off of Mountainview Road with a trailhead sign indicating Paradise Ridge (on the right or north side of the road) where there is a parking area. There is very little water on this hike (crossing a few seasonal streams) and the cell signal was off and on depending on elevation (working near the bottom and the top). Mountain goats are sometimes encountered in this area!
