Phillips Creek Campsite

Highlight • Camping

Marble Meadows Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Marble Meadows Trail offers a pretty sufficient climb to stunning alpine lakes and tarns. The trail is remote as it can only be accessed by boat, making it feel truly wild. The weather can change quickly up here, especially with summer afternoon thunderstorms.

Tip by

9.04 km

Wheaton Hut

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Wheaton Hut is a little silver backcountry hut. It is very tidy and does not require a permit. It is first-come, first-served, so hike out early to ensure a spot to sleep inside. Otherwise, bring a tent for backcountry camping. There is a pit toilet a few meters north of this hut.

Wheaton Lake

Highlight • Lake

Wheaton Lake is where Marble Meadows Trail ends. It is very scenic, clear, and surrounded by rocky exposed peaks and sparse trees. There are sometimes bugs here in the summer, so bring repellent.
