Mt. McLellan triangulation station #657007 - Canadian Benchmarks on Waymarking.com

It's about a 3 hour (round trip) hike with a significant elevation change. The reward is the spectacular view of Skaha Lake.

The trail is marked with cairns and sometimes reg flag tape, but I found them hard to follow and relied on my GPS and its topo map to plot my course there and back.

Park at the trail head on White Lake road (N 49° 19.818 W 119° 37.886) and crawl under the barbed wire fence to access the trail.

Wear good boots; carry water; and be alert for rattlesnakes (although I never saw any).
