A short lake outing within the forest network behind UNBC, also spelled Corky Lake in local material. The published four-kilometre return description lacks a verified sequence of trail junctions.

1. Getting there and parking

Use the UNBC-side Cranbrook Hill Greenway trailhead off University Way: pass the university entrance, take the next signed right and then the left into the parking area. This reaches the wider network behind UNBC, not a confirmed lake-specific trailhead. Identify the current signed connection to Corky/Korky Lake on the network map before starting; the brief club entry does not publish its intermediate turns.

2. Walking the route

The local listing describes approximately 4 km there and back and two to three hours, but it does not supply enough detail to promise a turn-by-turn lake route. Stay on the mapped network and establish the lake branch before leaving a known junction. Do not substitute the Greenway’s through-route or an informal bushwhack for the missing connection. If the lake path cannot be positively identified from current signage and a reliable map, choose a documented Greenway or Forests for the World route instead. The uncertainty concerns the final route connection, not the existence of the lake outing.
