Description:

Park at the locked gate on North Wheeny Trail and walk on North Wheeny Trail for about a kilometre before descending into the headwaters of Emerald Brook at around GR 760 926. Follow this ravine all the way down to Wheeny Creek. Turn upstream and walk to a tributary at GR 771 911. Climb that tributary (several waterfalls are expected) for as long as our interest takes us, probably to around GR 758 915. Exit on the ridge to the west and walk back to the cars. About 11 km. Wet feet and more in Wheeny Creek. Scrambling and exposure. Mostly exploratory.
