Getting there
Recent new access to the site is via the Juliet Creek FSR in which the local forestry company has constructed a new, less steep road to the lake. Take the Juliet Creek exit off the Coquihalla Highway and proceed up this new road to the southern end of the lake. Then drive along the lake heading north past the small Murray Lake South campsite and the cottages to this northern site.
