Our group of four met across from the Cameron Lake picnic area at 0900 and started the hike at 0915. There had been a dusting of snow the night before so we opted to bring our snowshoes, not knowing with certainty how much snow (or how soft of snow) we would encounter toward the top.

The weather was good. Mostly sunny with some clouds, but nice and cool.
I mean what can I say about Mount Cokely via the CPR Trail other than it’s longer and steeper every time I do it … oh, and there are killer views. Dean joined us for the first part of the hike before moving on ahead. Trail conditions were good until the snow on the final approach, and really the snow was aesthetically pleasing.
Three of us summited and lunched at the top and enjoyed the view – Arrowsmith is beautiful from Cokely. The descent was uneventful. We all enjoyed the day.

We made our way up the CPR trail continuing on the east side of the Arrowsmith lookout Loop. We were in and out of fog and cloud. It eventually blew out and we had clear blue sunny skies.
As we continued toward to west side of the loop, by the old ski hill road we hit the snow and it was quite cloudy again and cold. Making our way along the west side back to the CPR trail the skies opened up against and we enjoyed a beautiful decent. The whole hike was amazing.
Look forward to posting it again and taking another group up!
We left from Hwy 4 up the logging road to the TH and made our way up to the lookout. Did the out and back route. Stunning water falls at the bridge, views as we made our way up. When we reached the summit, we were treated to the most beautiful sunny views and enjoyed the inverted cloud views with little to no wind. Being greeted and dive-bombed by whiskey jacks was a highlight as we fed them, and they took it upon themselves to steal what they could of our lunches. The CPR trail is one of my favourites for sure!!
On a not so typical Wednesday, (August 24, 2022) four Ramblers trusted me enough to lead an inaugural trip. The selection was a lifetime objective, Mt. Cokely via the CPR trail. We were blessed with fine weather (although a little warm) and no smoke of any significance. We had a very experienced crew and exchanged some safety information, introductions and started our walk.
