In past summers, I drove from the Magna Bay area on Shuswap Lake up steep backroads, then parked, and continued to hike up trails to the top of Crowfoot Mountain. The tracks going up Crowfoot and over to Mobley Mountain are used more by dirt bikes, quads, snowmobiles, and now mountain bikes, but only a few hikers get to the top of Crowfoot Mountain.
The highlight of the hike is the alpine meadows in summer and long views when the weather is clear.
Looking east past Angle Mountain are the Monashee Mountains.
The track over to Mobley Mountain goes through open meadows. It is a long hike out and back, so a mountain bike outing might be best.
