Description |
We will begin at the Main Lakes Park parking access on the west side of Stramberg Lake. The access road is quite rough. We will hike Little Main Road north, paralleling Stramberg Lake and Creek. We will cross Stramberg Creek near Shadowbrook Creek and follow a flagged route north of the lake to a grove of old growth trees. Part of this route has recently been maintained, but not all of it. We can stop for a swim in Stramberg Lake at the end of the hike. About 12 km; 4.5 hours without the driving. |
