Outdoor Adventure

Spirit Caves Trail

This trail has steep switchbacks which lead to a great view of Yale and the Fraser River. The caves are easy to miss since they are unmarked. Once you get beyond the part of the hike where you see the view down the west side of the hill, begin climbing over rocks and downhill slightly. You should find them after a couple of minutes of exploration. There are 5-6 caves in total. Look for large, dark gaps between the boulders.Statistics: Total Distance: 5.2 km (return) Estimated Time: 3 hours Level: Difficult Average Grade: 20.8% Structure: Linear - Return Elevation Gain: 540 m Start Elevation: 90 m Max Elevation: 630 mGPS Waypoints: Trailhead // N49.55714 W121.44478 10U 612476 5490555 Small bridge over creek // N49.55737 W121.44592 10U 612393 5490579 High voltage powerlines // N49.55777 W121.44640 10U 612358 5490623 Trail re-enters forest // N49.55880 W121.44621 10U 612369 5490738 Creek valley lookout // N49.56260 W121.44609 10U 612369 5491160 Trail crosses minor landslide // N49.56376 W121.44455 10U 612478 5491292 Summit / End of Trail // N49.57022 W121.44227 10U 612628 5492013 Main lookout // N49.56670 W121.44248 10U 612621 5491622 Spirit Caves // N49.56858 W121.44352 10U 612541 5491829 Fork in trail // N49.56904 E121.44240 51U 387379 5491882 Lower pond // N49.56900 W121.44161 10U 612678 5491878 Summit // N49.57020 W121.44238 10U 612620 5492011 Upper pond // N49.57096 W121.44208 10U 612640 5492096
