Description:
This trail is about a 2-hour drive from Prince George, BC. The rocks in the area are unique, and the views are stunning. Our typical hiking distance is 17.5 km round trip (this is more of a route than a trail). It should be noted that there is no developed trail for this hike, and it requires route finding and bushwhacking to get to the alpine. There are some flagging markers starting in the forest after leaving the top northeast corner of the clearcut, leading towards the alpine. Water sources exist, but not until you reach the alpine lakes and ponds. The lower elevation of the trail does not come close to any water sources, though a deep ravine is off to the right of the trail where a stream flows from the alpine. I did not have a cell signal in the area whatsoever, but given how far down logging roads this trailhead begins, that was no surprise. You will require a 2-way radio programmed for the BC backcountry to navigate this often very busy road, as it is an active resource road, with pipeline and logging work ongoing.
