About This Trail

Pimpernel Mountain is a small knob in the heart of the Bill Nye area. While it is not the largest of features, it offers amazing views of Nadina Mountain and the Coast Range. The route up Pimpernell is steep and fairly difficult. Once on top, scattered Whitebark Pine and Balsams are not too big to block the view. There is no accessible water sources along the way, make sure to bring lots of water.
