行程描述

It is tricky now to find the start point since the Sea-to-Sky highway "upgrade" prior to the 2010 Olympics. The trail now has to wind under the highway at the beginning. Take Exit 4 (Headland/Woodgreen) off the Upper Levels Highway (Route 1) and then get on Westport Road heading west and north (from an intersection just immediately north of the highway overpass. Follow Westport Road until in dives back under the highway and then take the next immediate right where there may be a small sign for Whyte Lake trail just before a barely larger parking area big enough for perhaps 15 cars: diagonal parking on the left, parallel on the right.

The trail starts as a wide flat road surface, and after about a half kilometre jogs right into the woods between two large concrete water tanks. From there it is a root-filled narrow trail that requires some careful watching of the footing and some large steps over various obstacles. The trail is mostly in the shade under an older cedar and fir canopy.

It seems you'll have to climb over this great big fir log, but you can go around it to a nice cut-out.

A great swimming spot with a boardwalk and pier just under the water. At least soak your feet from the bench provided.

General Trail Conditions

There is some boardwalk and a few bridges, but 90% of the trail is rough with roots and stones sticking up and out. The trail is easy to follow, but you will certainly be looking at your feet to keep from tripping.
