About this site

Source

Joffre Lakes Provincial Park stacks three turquoise-blue lakes beneath jagged peaks and icefields near Pemberton, and its fame means structure: backcountry camping runs on reservations, and day-use passes are often required as well.

The area between North Joffre Creek and Cayoosh Pass is Pipi7íyekw in the St̓atímcets language, a camping place where storage houses were, within the unceded territories of the Líl̓wat Nation and N'Quatqua. The trail to the lakes starts about 3 km from the listing point, with fishing and hiking the main pursuits and pit toilets the only comfort.

Líl̓wat / Mount Currie is about 17 km away with the nearest listed fuel, and Pemberton's riding network sits about 23 km off.
