Has anyone backpacked to the farthest west camp on the lake? I think its call the (1)float plane landing area on the Hamber park map. It looks like the trail ends before you get there. Wondering, if we should plug our way threw to that site or to set camp before it? Thanks for any info.

Couple of discussions from a flyfishing board:

I don't think these directly answer your question in terms of answering how far west that trail goes (Sorry). But it is some info, particularly in the first thread, the outstanding answer provided by rehsifylf (scroll down, its the 13th reply).

Good luck!
