FYI, BC Parks has removed the free chicken wire to wrap your vehicle that they used to keep at the parking lot. Make sure to bring some of your own!

@@Mason11717 Hey! I didn't record a GPS file this trip, but it's very straightforward from the campsite. You continue up the hill past the lake where you get water, and go up the gully. Then just scramble up the, and skirt around the opposite side (side of the mountain that's further away from applebee) then go up another (looseish) gully to reach the summit.

Normally I hate these type of videos but this is tolerable! No stupid music, no over dramatization. No fish eye lens. No stupid antics or asinine narration. Just a competent person going about his business. Well done. Maybe the first KZitemr I’ve seen that it looks like I’d be happy to do a trip with.

Wow! Lots of work to setup the camera, walk away, return, pick up the camera, and repeat. The resulting footage is clearly a few notches above the other videos taken with a handheld cam or mounted on the helmet. Some of the angles were very deliberate and the framing was very cinematic. The opening forest scene's lighting was very dramatic. Simply amazing! Thank you.

They're there to prevent the brake line eating porcupines from wrecking your car. I believe they're attracted to the road salt on the bottom.

Hi rickrayn! The one I did was pretty much the easiest hike in the Bugs. Almost everyone just scrambles this route, it's considered a rest/rainy day hike. The hike up to the campsite is basically a walk, similar to the Chief in Squamish but it's a very scenic one and worth doing!
