BC Address Geocoder matched the City-published 2323 Kueng Road address at CIVIC_NUMBER precision with an accessPoint descriptor, score 100 and medium positional accuracy. The City explicitly directs visitors along Kueng Road to the main Forests for the World parking lot. The published Shane Lake route starts at this lot; its mapped entrance is about 7 m from this access point. This coordinate identifies the parking approach, not a surveyed parking bay or a field-verified trailhead. Check current access and signs on arrival. This point is not a confirmed starting point for the selected route option.
