Greendrop Lake Location
Greendrop Lake - Distance : 4 1/2 - 10 km. Elevation gain : 400m. High point 1000m. Time : 6 hrs. To find these lakes take the Cultus Lake turn off from the 401 freeway & make your way to Chilliwack Lake Road . This road is just past the turn off for Cultus Lake . There is a steel bridge and a sign pointing the way to Sardis . Cross the bridge and turn right . You are now on Chilliwack Lake Road . The Vedder River is on your right . Stay on this road for about 38 km. ( 1 km. before Chilliwack Lake Provincial Park ) and look for a sign on your right that will be marked " Post Creek Campground " . This is a B.C. Forest Services campsite . You should find plenty of parking here . The trail starts by a small creek and takes you immediately into lush forest . This is a trail the whole family can enjoy . At one point there is an old log that crosses the creek , for the little ones this can be exciting . The last 30 minuets is a bit of a grunt but short rest breaks should take care of that . Lindeman Lake itself , is a fair size . There are a number of tent sites at the lake . The locals tell me they fill up fast in the summer . The trail continues along the east side of the lake and over a small boulder field . On the west side of the lake towering over you are some peaks called The Gargoyles . The lake is in a narrow valley so the views are great . At the far end of the lake is a boardwalk and a small beach . At this point you can continue your journey to Greedrop Lake . Follow the pink markers across a small creek at the north end of the lake . This will take you up the valley past an old rockslide . There are some old growth trees in the area and lots of nice little camping spots along the way . I went up here in late May and ran into snow , which prevented me from getting to the last lake . It was too bad because I only had 1 km. to go but the weather was changing quickly and it was getting cold . I plan to do this one again in the fall when the trees start turning.
