A stunning 22km hike to Elfin Lakes in Garibaldi Provincial Park, BC, if you can see…
Headed East along Garibaldi Lake road from Squamish until we arrived at the Diamond Head car park. Left the car there and headed up into the mountains, which were wrapped in cloud. Made the hike in slightly disorientating, but at least it was cool!
Enroute to Elfin Lakes – Red Heather Meadows just past the old Diamond Head lodge.
Elfin Lakes Hike – Running into some serious cloud up high…
Red Heather Meadows in the cloud (before if really came in)
Red Heather Meadows in the sun, the following day!
Elfin Lakes Ranger Hut slowly appearing from the cloud as we got closer
Elfin Lakes Campsite – not a bad pitch by any means!
Elfin lakes mountain lodge nestled in the trees with the cone hidden in cloud in the background
Elfin Lakes clearly visible the following day once the cloud disappeared.
Great views of Garibaldi Provincial Park on the way back down.
