Mount Bishop via Vicar Lakes

Yesterday I hiked Mount Bishop. I parked at the North end of Lillooet Road and cycled to the trailhead on Spur 4 road on the East side of the Seymour River.  I locked my bike and hiked up past Vicar Lakes and onto Mount Bishop.





The trailhead is near 12.5 km on Spur 4 Road. It's marked by orange square markers. It is easy to miss.



Vicar Lakes were very serene.



Such a foggy day, not much of a view. Wet rock made the scramble a little tricky.


A few notes:
-The trail from Spur 4 Road to Vicar Lakes is in amazing condition with lots of flagging and ropes, which help a lot because it's quite steep. A big thank you to whoever maintains this trail!
-At Vicar Lakes it meets up with the Indian Arm Trail which apparently continues towards Mount Dickens and beyond.
-Total time was 9.5 hours.
-Next time I would park at Lynn Headwaters to avoid the 100 speedbumps on Lillooet Road.
-Find a map of the Lower Seymour Conservation Reserve here. It does not show the trailhead.
