The Kennedy Trail was the first trail running south from Annieville (across the Fraser from New Westminster) to Mud Bay and was built in 1861. It is believed that this trail followed the base of the hill overlooking the Delta flats to Oliver Slough near Mud Bay. Kennedy built the trail under contract from Col. Moody. Kennedy used the trail to drive cattle from Oliver Slough to his holdings.[...]
In the British Columbian for January 23, 1862 (p, 2) Kennedy pointed out to Moody and all the others who had opposed his trail that it had been the means of their survival when the Fraser River had frozen over and the City and Camp were out of meat.
