Lake Lovely Water 比 Grouse Grind 還要陡峭, 所有參加者須背重三十磅+行走或攀爬達5至6小時之久 (中途有休息), 湖边木屋旁的camping site有限，好象只有6个pad? 我们可能会在sandspit扎营.
The jet boat boarding is in Brackendale, 5 mins pass Squamish downtown.
Driving direction:
Sea-to-sky northbound
Left turn on Mamquam Rd
Right turn onto Government Rd northbound
Drive straight forward untill meet Judd Rd.
Turn left (westbound) untill meet Brennan Rd
Turn left, drive to the end of Brennan Rd & park at Fisherman Dock
info from Bivouac:Lake Lovely Water Trail
Access To: ACC Cabin at Lake Lovely Water, and Tantalus Range.
Condition: Steep and spectacular. Aside from the lowest sections which are a thrash through a clearcut, the trail is in pretty good condition. It is similar in length and ruggedness to the Wedgemount Lake Trail in Garibaldi Park. Parties carrying heavy packs should allow about 3-4 hours to reach the Tantalus Hut. Travelling to the Red Tit Hut is feasible, but is a long day.
General Route: From the Squamish River up through old growth to Lake Lovely Water.
How To Find: Take an unmarked dirt road at Mile 9.1 on the Squamish Main. The road winds its way ~1km to the E bank of the Squamish River. At the river, there is a cable across the river for water surveying and shortly afterwards the road ends at the river bank. To cross the river requires a boat because the cable car is private. The cable car is normally locked on the E side but the lock is frequently vandalized and the car hijacked and left on the W side (and locked by the hijackers). Other crossing practices involve hanging off the cable in a climbing harness using self-made pulley systems and sliding hand-over-hand along the main cable or hanging off steel rescue carabiner (one inch or larger jaw) with climbing sling backup and sliding slowly hand-over-hand. The most extreme was performed by ace climber Peter Croft- standing on the main cable and using as a handhold the smaller cable above which holds the aircraft beacons. Not to be repeated as the cables sway and tend towards a horizontal plane in the middle. The river is ~300m wide and a plunge will be fatal.
So, use a canoe and hide and lock it to a tree on W side. (Some were left stranded when their unlocked canoe was stolen.) All possibilities carry an air of adventure which is why most people now fly in and out. If crossing by canoe, it is possible to put in upstream of the cable tower and ferry across to sand bars on W side. The landing on the west side is easy, about 300m upstream from the cable car. There is a trail from the sandy beach that joins the other trail (from the cable car) in a clearcut. Crossing normally requires two paddlers and experience is recommended. From the cable tower on W side, the trail leads upstream for a short distance before it angles away from the river.
The lower part of the Lake Lovely Water trail crosses private land and was logged in 1995. The parking area on the E bank of the river is Squamish Indian Band territory. There is no longer a formal agreement with the band that permits parking, so parking is at own risk.
History: On a historical note: In 1961, the ACC had an agreement with Moses Billy to ferry climbers across the river in his dugout canoe. Today, to make arrangements for the jet boat service contact Jay Bicknell (604-815-9647). For cabin arrangements contact Alpine Club of Canada.

Lake Lovely Water Trail (Lake Lovelywater Trail)
Length: 4 km
Condition: Steep and spectacular. Aside from the lowest sections which are a thrash through a clearcut, the trail is in pretty good condition.
General Route: From the Squamish River up through old growth to Lake Lovely Water.
How to Find: Take an unmarked dirt road at Mile 9.1 on the Squamish Main. The road winds its way ~1km to the E bank of the Squamish River. At the river, there is a cable across the river for water surveying and shortly afterwards the road ends at the river bank. River is usually crossed by canoe. The parking area on the E bank of the river is Squamish Indian Band territory, so parking is at own risk.
Description: It is similar in length and ruggedness to the Wedgemount Lake Trail in Garibaldi Park. Parties carrying heavy packs should allow about 3-4 hours to reach the Tantalus Hut. Travel to the Jim Haberl Hut is a long day.
It is much more common to use a canoe than to use the cable car. It may be advised to hide the paddles separate from the canoe, or lock the canoe to a tree on W side. (Some were left stranded when their unlocked canoe was stolen.) If crossing by canoe, it is possible to put in upstream of the cable tower and ferry across to sand bars on W side. The landing on the west side is easy, about 300m upstream from the cable car. There is a trail from the sandy beach that joins the other trail (from the cable car) in a clearcut. Crossing normally requires two paddlers and experience is recommended. From the cable tower on W side, the trail leads upstream for a short distance before it angles away from the river. Unfortunately many people now fly in and out, and thus never experience the spectacular beauty of the trail. The lower part of the Lake Lovely Water trail crosses private land and was logged in 1995. 2005:THE KEY POINT IN NAVIGATING DOWN FROM THE HUT TO LAKE LOVELY WATER. When descending, patiently keep traversing east below Mt. Serratus taking care not to drop into cliffs above the Russian Army Camp, the large flats braided with streams seen below the ring of cliffs. Once around the south ridge of Mt. Serratus follow the easiest line south-eastward toward small lakes at GR 798 149 on the Cheakumus River Map. Watch for cairns and pick up the trail at the little col just east and slightly above the lakes.
