Day 4: From Nairn Falls Provincial Park to Lillooet

게시됨: 07.07.2022

We start the day with a hike to the waterfall. The trail follows the raging river and after 1.5 kilometers, we reach the falls. It has a lot of water and the power of the water is impressive. After a short break, we make our way back. After about 1 hour, we reach the camper and drive to Joffre Lake Park. There, we start a hike to the mountain lake. It takes us 1 hour and 10 minutes to hike the 3.6 kilometers with an elevation gain of 250 meters. The hike is challenging as it is constantly uphill, but we are rewarded with a great view. The striking thing about the Joffre Lakes is the special color created by silt from the Ice Age. The silt, also known as rock flour or glacial flour, is present in the water and reflects sunlight, creating a greenish-blue color. The combination of the lake, the trees, and the snow-capped mountains in the background creates a beautiful setting. There is also the option to hike another 100 meters in elevation to another mountain lake, but we decide against it. The ascent is very strenuous. After a break, we turn back. The descent shouldn't be underestimated either. We are proud of our children for completing the entire hike without any incidents. We leave the parking lot around 3:00 pm and it takes us one hour to reach Lillooet. Along the way, we pass forests, rivers, lakes, and mountains. Lillooet is a small town founded during the gold rush in 1858. We visit the small museum with many artifacts from the past. Our campsite is located near the raging Fraser River. During dinner, we spot several bald eagles soaring over the mountains and deer.
