Introduction
Percy Canyon is a long, somewhat physically demanding canyon that makes its way down the slopes of Mount Seymour. This route begins very close to the Mount Seymour ski area, and works its way down almost to sea level.
As of June 30, 2013, Percy Creek is not really recommended as a fun day out! There seems to have been a major wind and/or rain event that has caused a lot of trees to slide into the canyon.
Approach
