Description:
Caledonia Mountain is located approximately 79 km down the Bowron and Tumuch Forest Service roads (past the trailhead for The Vineyards and take the first road to the right all the way to the end).
This trail begins at a washout where you cross 2 logs and follow the trail and ribbons up into a steep meadow with old burned trees. This part of the hike is the hardest as it offers few flat sections and is mostly exposed to the hot sun and bugs. This is a strenuous hike but it gets easier once you reach the first lake. There are plenty of water sources via creeks and lakes on this hike and some great camping spots beside the lakes. The best part of this hike is the first 4 lakes, the best being the lake before you ascend the last section to Caledonia Mt.
