most of the way up mount webb in chilliwack lake provincial park is radium lake .this is a moderate 15 km. hike from the footbridge by the campground. this area was opened by british royal engineers training between ww1 and ww2. .they named the alpine lakes for the beautiful green colour of the water. flora,greendrop,and radium lakes. the trail was very scenic, with alpine meadows and dark old growth rainforest. the trail follows and crosses radium creek fort he over 900 meter climb.there are numerous log bridges and a wild suspension bridge on the way, along with historical ruins of charles lindemans old sattelite hunting cabins.upon reaching the lake i was impressd by the rugged beauty of it all. it was definitely worth all the effort.
