Deeks Lake Trail (Howe Sound Crest Trail North)

The Deeks Lake Trail form the final northern portion of Howe Sound Crest Trail in northern Cypress Provincial Park.

Length: 2.3 km
Condition: A popular and well-used trail.  Maintenance is sporadic and badly eroded beyond the driveable road for about one kilometer.
General Route: This is the northern section of the Howe Sound Crest Trail. The Deeks Lake trail runs from the Porteau Cove interchange on Highway 99 up to Deeks Lake. For lack of a more inclusive name, we continue using the trail name up to the height of land at Hat Pass.
How to Find: The trailhead to the Deeks Lake Trail is on highway 99 just south of Porteau Cove. Park at a pullout on the east (northbound) side of the highway. The trail is signed as "Deeks Lake trail" as it heads immediately uphill from the highway pullout.
