Came here climbing. I mean this is basically a climbing paradise. There are so many routes here. So we went to Sugarloaf inside Murrin park. As a tip you have to come early or else all the lines would be taken. People from BCMG came to train people how to lead. Pretty cool and its a good place to hold classes that’s for sure. After that we went to the Milkman route and that is a difficult climb 5.8. A bit too much for me. I think I have to get some practice before attempting it again. Climbing is not the only activity you can do here. You can also hike. or just sit in the parking lot and get a sunbath. The parking lots is huge and best of all its free. Definitely coming back for more climbing!

Passed by Murrin Provincial Park during the summer and I remember seeing the parking lot packed with cars. Went back late September and it was nice and quiet with a few cars. Thought it was just a short hike around the lake till we saw a sign post pointing over a small ridge stating the areas for climbing, trails and a viewpoint. Curious as we were, we decided to go for the view point. Tip: bring water and be ready to use your hands. The hike up the view point was steep at certain points but worth every single bit. We followed the Loop Trail up. Reached the view point in about 30 minutes(roughly, we did not keep track of our start/finish time). Breath taking views all around. On the way back down, we continued along the Loop Trail to go among the firs with one more view point. All-in-all an unexpected hike, best in the off season. If you bring your dog, you may have to help them coming down like we did. The turn off to get to the park comes suddenly right after the small sign post when heading south on the Hwy. Leaving the park is not as difficult if travelling South.

Great Parking | Great Climbing | Great for Picnics with the Family One of my favorite places to climb at. It seriously can’t get any better than roadside trad/sport climbing! LOTS of parking in the big lot. It can get pretty busy when it’s a holiday weekend, but we never had an issue with parking. Wide stalls. Easy to get on/off the main highway. There’s two porta pottys that aren’t bad. They have hand sanitation gel after you’re done with your business.(That’s a plus) You can walk around the park and have a picnic right by the lake. There’s a bunch of sturdy well-built tables there. I guess it was built to withstand some harsh weather. They’re not flimsy and made with cheap materials. TONS of climbing all around. We enjoyed hiking around to find some walls to jump on, but most of the stuff was wet because of the storm. We ended up doing Genesis Wall and Bog Wall. Good climbs I recommend: –Up from the Bog(5.8) –Geneside(5.10b) –Genesis(5.10a)

This is a pretty small park along Highway 99 just before Squamish. The park has a Lake called Browning Lake that you can take a swim in in the summer. There are opportunities to fish in the lake as well. For climbers there are over 250 routes from novice to expert. This park is also used for a staging point for hikes outside the park boundary’s to Petgil Lake Goat Ridge starting across the highway.
