There are two trailheads to chose from, one in each end which means you have the option of trekking it one way if you have someone to pick you up at the other end. Different parts of Rim-Moody Point Trail are at very different elevations, and that means that some parts of the backcountry trail could be very different from other parts of it. This vicinity does get very dry sometimes, so don’t forget to check for any current fire restrictions before you go. Being 17 miles long; it's considered a longer backcountry hike. Of course, this is an overnight trek, 2.5 days normally, so better have big a backpack to fit all the stuff you need. Now this backcountry trail is pretty long, so make sure you bring plenty of supplies. Rim-Moody Point Trail has a total elevation difference of 4,992 feet which is a higher than average number.
