Trails and Campsite improvements in Chillwack Lake and Skagit Valley area

BC Parks just let us know the following camping/hiking news:


Recently, BC Parks along with members of the BC Conservation Corps built 5 tent pads at Lindeman Lake, 2 tent pads at Greendrop Lake and brushed out the old Flora/Greendrop connector trail We hope that word gets out that the old Flora/Greendrop trail has been brushed out again and that people start using this trail. It is a beautiful hike in Chilliwack Lake P.P. (albeit a bit strenuous) that more people should get to enjoy!

BC Parks partnered up with the Student Conservation Association and for the last two summers have been working to brush out the trail to Galene Lakes in Skagit Valley Provincial Park. Thanks to the hard work of the Student Conservation Association this past summer, we were able to finish brushing out the trail all the way to Galene Lakes. We are hoping that lots of people take advantage of this trail that takes you to three beautiful alpine lakes, provides access to some great ridge walking and provides breathtaking views of Ross Lake.
