Decided to go up the Coquitlam Lakeview trail on Burke Mountain today. It was a beautiful sunny day, but pretty cool. We put on our micro spikes due to icy trail conditions and we encountered fresh snow about half way up.
Today’s stats were:
Distance: 11.4 km (return)
Low point: 330 m
High point: 908 m
Elevation gain: 578 m
Total Elevation gain: 695 m
Trailhead: 49° 18’ 49” by 122° 44’ 57.3” (Google Map)
Here’s the route…
Here is the viewpoint…

★★★★★★★★★★★
Before heading out on your hike, make sure you are well prepared. This means, having the TEN ESSENTIALS. It is also important to leave a trip plan (route details and estimated return time) with someone you trust.
Bring your smartphone, fully charged and put it in airplane mode while hiking. I always bring back-up battery packs for extra piece of mind. It is highly recommended that you bring a GPS device; I use my smartphone with a GPS app (Backcountry Navigator). The GPS will work in airplane mode. Learn how to use it before your hike.
For anyone new to hiking, there is a rule to which hikers follow; it is called “Leave No Trace” or LNT. The concept is generally to pack out what you pack in and respect nature, so all future visitors can enjoy what you have enjoyed.
