About Chain Lakes (Owl Creek)
**Please drive with extreme caution as this road is very steep and logging operations do take place up the Owl Creek FSR**
This is a chain of 3 marshy lakes and 3 large, clear, mountain lakes, a relatively easy to moderate hike. Approx. 1 hour to the big lake. The trail is hard to find after you pass the second lake. There are fish in the lakes. There is one place to camp at the large lake.

Getting there
From Pemberton on HWY 99, travel North, drive through Mount Currie, towards D'arcy. After about 4.5km, turn left onto the Owl Creek Forest Service Road. 4x4 is recommended. The road has been upgraded for logging but is still very steep. Travel approx. 8km, you will see a map of the area, drive straight, across a bridge and up a steep road, park at the end of the road, which is an old landing for a cut block. The trailhead is half way between the hairpin corner and the landing.
