Wedgemount Lake

"Wedgemount Lake and Tupper Lake: 7.4 miles (hard) The Wedgemount Lake Trail is absolutely stunning. There are some steep sections, but also a lot of flat parts. In most of the steep areas, there are plenty of roots and rocks to act as steps. The scramble is also fun for folks who enjoy a good mountain scramble. Most of the trail is under forest-cover, so it is easier stay cool for the most part if attempting in summer. There are plenty of snow-capped mountains behind when finishing the scramble right before seeing the majestic Wedgemount Lake. The lake is beautiful on a sunny day and it’s large enough that it can be enjoyed even when there are a lot of people. I recommend that you visit either early or later in the day to avoid crowds, due to how relentlessly steep and difficult the trail can be. The last 45 minutes to the top can get slippery as the trail gets much steeper and the terrain is quite loose. "
