Enjoy this lesser travelled loop above the Howe Sound. If you are looking to log some efficient vertical meters this is a great option with spectacular views of the Howe Sound. There are a couple options for water fill ups in late summer at Lost Lake and Deeks Lake. Using a filter is wise. There is a couple hundred meters of brushy trail just passed Lost Lake Shelter but this improves once you hit the Sub-Alpine old growth forest. Keep a close eye out for trail marker on the descent down to Deeks Lake.
