Getting there
Access is from Coquihalla Highway (Hwy #5)at the Helmer Lake Road Exit# 315 on the east side of the highway. Once off the highway follow the paved section until you come to the start of the Mab Lake FSR (gravel). Continue on (not on the Mab FSR) but keep immediately to the left and parallel the highway for a bit and drive for 3.0 km. Turn right and continue on this very rough 4 x 4 road for 2.0 km until you come to the campsite.
