Owen Hill (Houston)

Site Description: Owen Lookout was designated as a Rec Site in 2009. In the summer of 2012, the Houston Hikers Society received a grant from the Ministry of Forests centennial fund to spearhead the lookout's restoration. The society and its volunteers worked hard to ensure that the site was fixed up so that it could continue to be a destination. One enhancement to the site includes a large wrap-around deck that provides enough room for tenting. Owen Lookout provides a good view of Morice Mountain and the Morice River valley. The top of Nadina Mountain can also be seen. Nearby, the Owen Flats Rec Sites offer good camping amenities along the banks of the Morice River.
