Hello,
THANK YOU to all that posted with help in planning a backpack at Strathcona Park on Vancouver Island.
Did a 1-night overnight on July 26-27 to Bedwell Lake. Ran into snow just before Baby Bedwell and then had much more on the east side of Baby Bedwell on the ascent up to Bedwell. Continued with on and off snow along the east side of Bedwell with 2 stream crossings that required fords in the late afternoon on a sunny day (able to hop across on rocks the following morning when in a cool fog bank).
The tent platforms were melted out at Bedwell and we were the ONLY ones there. It was glorious for sure!
Highly recommend the backpack!
Thanks again, Carrie
