Description

Added by Mike Anderson

An awesome 2 hour hike that leads to an incredible lake that is beautiful both in the summer and winter time.

This 3.4 km round trip hike will take you up approximately 300 metres to the lake. The lake is glacier fed and can be very cold, however this can be incredibly refreshing in the summer.

Depending on the time of year you will need to dress according to the weather. If you are going just for the day then a backpack with sunscreen, a lunch, hat, and sunglasses. Make sure to also bring good shoes and lots of water. If staying overnight then I would recommend bringing a tent (there are tent pads at the lake) and all the provisions one would need in order to stay the night. Be aware that there are only a limited number of spots at the lake and there is no fee to use them, so they may already be in use when you arrive.

You start the trail in a newly created parking lot (outhouses as well). Follow along the trail, and within a short distance from the parking lot you will come to a fork. Take the left trail (right goes to Flora Lake). This part of the trail is fairly flat with some nice scenery. You will follow the trail over a log bridge and then the ascent begins. The trail can be very steep at times, with l...

Porcupine Peak (also known as Goat Peak) is a little known trail that begins beside the popular Lindeman and Greendrop Lakes trailhead. The hike is tough, going straight uphill for a significant portion, with some ups and downs right before reaching the peak. The trailhead is a bit tricky to find. Head to the Lindeman Lake trailhead but before heading onto the main trail, take your first possi...

Camp at Jones Lake

Southwest of Hope and just east of Chilliwack, Jones Lake is a recreation site at a reservoir lake in the coastal mountain range, managed by BC Hydro. Set below granite mountain peaks and surrounded by a dense forest (that is unfortunately being logged), this lake isn't pristine, but it sure is pretty. There is a total of 55 campgrounds in 3 campgrounds around the lake with pit toilets and room...

Hike Mount Cheam

Even at the parking lot, there is a stunning view of Lady Peak and Mount Cheam. Walk towards the big pile of logs and towards the old logging road. You will also see an outhouse – this will be your one and only time to use a toilet, so go now. The road continues for about 15 min. before reaching the first leg of the hike.The trail descends about 50 m (164 ft) down, passing through a stunning gr...
