Site map

Opening the map…

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

  1. Take Upper Fraser Road from Highway 16 about 16.5 km east of Prince George. Continue roughly 63 km to the one-lane bridge.

  2. Cross the bridge, then turn right and next left onto the McGregor FSR approach. The site is listed near road kilometre 39 at the north end of Pass Lake.

Full access notes

Leave Highway 16 on Upper Fraser Road, cross the single-lane Fraser River bridge and continue onto the McGregor forest-road system. The camping directory places the recreation site at the north end of Pass Lake around road kilometre 39. Check the current kilometre signs and access branch locally rather than routing directly to a lakeshore point. Road condition and industrial traffic can affect the time needed for this approach.

Map position: 54.11439, -121.41032 · recreation project location. Source-published recreation project point; not verified parking or trailhead.

At the campsite

The site provides lake access and a possible overnight base for separate mountain outings in the corridor. It is not the Farm trailhead, the Fang trailhead or an established walking circuit around Pass Lake. Choose the individual hike guide for its access and current conditions; in particular, the June 2026 Fang rockslide closure is a separate restriction that camping nearby does not bypass.

Conditions & seasons

The directory does not establish a maintained winter approach. A camping listing is not a current road report, so confirm the forest-road conditions before planning an overnight or an early mountain start.

These are dated research notes. Open the trip planner for current available weather and advisory feeds; no alert found does not establish that a trail or road is open.

Camping & overnight plans

Two tent-capable camping spaces and pit toilets are listed on the gravel lakeshore. Amenities are limited, and the reviewed directory does not confirm drinking water, booking arrangements or a current fee. With only two spaces, prepare a lawful alternative if the site is occupied and keep access lanes clear.
