Geocache Description:


Fire Lookout

Lookout view

This cache is at an old fire lookout at the peak of Mount Hallowell in Spipiyus Provincal Park. This cache requires an off-road vehicle or a long hike.

Start at Trout Lake Road (the one at the bottom of the hill) and the highway and take the Halfmoon-Carlson forestry road all the way to the trailhead. We would recommend taking the left road as you enter the park. It is about a 1.4 km steep hike to the cache from the trailhead.

You can also hike from the main highway on the trail above the Malaspina Power Station. You will need to hike through a wash out. It is about a 4 hour strenuous, steep hike (one way) to the cache.

The cache is inside the lookout next to the summit register.

Very detailed maps showing the forestry roads and trails are available using the Gaia GPS phone app.
