Semaphore Lakes (Elevation gain: 250m)
Terrain: Moderate to occasional steep hiking, good trail
Equipment: Hiking Boots to Semaphore Lakes and surrounding meadows. To go further towards Face Mountain, you will want glacier gear.
Description: The Semaphore lakes trail starts near Railroad pass and climbs quickly to the alpine at the head of Donelly and Railroad Creeks. From the alpine, a variety of possible routes present themselves. If you want an easy hike, there are numerous meadows and alpine kettle lakes. Above the meadows is a steep headwall and glacier, leading to Face Mountain or any one of the Railroad Group. Climbing the peaks is usually an extra day.
From Pemberton, drive northwest for 24 km up the Lillooet River valley on the Pemberton Meadows Road, then turn right and cross the Lillooet River to the north side. (Do not continue straight on the south side). The road on the north side is called the Upper Lillooet River FSR. Follow it for 9.1 km (it is a dusty gravel road), to the Hurley River road. This road switchbacks up, climbing more than 1000m, from the Lillooet River at about 300m to Railroad pass at 1385m. The trailhead for Semaphore Lakes is near Railroad pass.
