Map & elevation

Opening the map…

Elevation profile

A full-route elevation profile is not available yet.

A reusable trail line has not yet been verified for this outing. Any location pin shows the published location described above; it does not draw the hike or establish a navigable approach.

Getting there & parking

The published access link points into the Herrick Creek drainage northeast of Prince George, but the article does not provide a complete named-road and junction sequence. A June 3, 2026 visitor report identifies a ribbon at the main road as the suggested walking start. Use a current forestry access map and verify the legal, passable road approach before treating the destination coordinate as a driveable trailhead.

Map position: 54.27489, -121.10961 · start point of published trip track (parking unverified). Embedded trip-map feature 'HerrickFalls': first recorded coordinate [-121.109606, 54.274888]. Point extracted from the original public trip map. A track start is evidence of where recording began, not certification of parking, legal access, road suitability or the complete route.

On the trail

The falls lie on Herrick Creek and require leaving the road for a short descent through rough ground. The June 2026 report says most of the old trail had disappeared, with a ribbon placed to reduce the amount of bushwhacking. That is a dated visitor aid, not a maintained marked trail. The published GPS outing is under a kilometre, but no dependable junction sequence or safe riverbank access line was established in the prose. Locate a route that can be reversed and stay clear of the steep bank and fast water.

Terrain: bushwhacking · river-edge terrain.

Distance and elevation source notes

The published 0.90 km recording and 53 m ascent cover a partial track. They do not establish the distance or ascent of a complete visit.

Conditions & seasons

The June 2026 report describes largely lost tread even in dry conditions. Snow, wet brush or high water can make the short approach more difficult; no winter route was verified.

Approach trail largely vanished

June 3, 2026 trip report says most of the trail is gone and brush-navigation is required.
