13.3 km one way with 860/1025m up/down in 5hrs. Solo.

Horton Hill trail (its map version) suppose to go to Lusk Creek parking (via south slopes). But there is another one, a well defined one on the west slopes. Unfortunately, lost it when crossing logging cut and ended up in Tim Horton Children's Camp - private property! Talked to a maintenance guy, explained the situation and luckily no penalties or anything like that.
Got a ride from Barrier Lake info center.

Overall, shall be done only for training purposes. Pretty much no views, a lot of bushwacking and log hopping. Good for the legs though.
