This hike was up Boulder Mountain in Northern BC, East of Prince George.
The trail is about a 2-hour drive down Highway 16 from Prince George (just past the Zig Zag Ridge trail) and turns down the Goat River Forest Service Road. There are currently no signs showing the trailhead but you should drive about 1.5 km down the Goat River FSR and look for an open area with the trail starting on the left (see the video below showing the road and trailhead). There is no cell signal until you approach the summit and then you may get some signal from the Longworth Mt direction. Water sources exist most of the way up until you reach the subalpine.
