This is such a pretty lake, surrounded by a beautiful little road lined with birch trees. Its such a beautiful spot. Like Donner lake, its on the rarely visited west side of Strathcona Park. It is accessed from the Ucona mainline logging road out of Gold River. The lake is accessed via somevery old and rough roads.
Be sure to look for the geocache!
Distance:
One way, there is about 7km of logging road out to the road access and then about 10km of old road going around the lake and back out onto the logging road.
Level:
The rough road is very rough and definitely has some “B” sections. NOTE: The Lake is almost completely inside Strathcona Park, the road around it should only be travelled on foot or bicycle.
Time of Year:
This area should be free from snow from May to November
Access:
In Gold River, head down Muchalat Drive, then turn onto Ucona Dr – towards the Rod and Gun club. This is the start of Ucona Mainline.
