5040

We decided to go to a beautiful place past Sproat lake in the Clayoquot area (Port Alberni) called 5040 and Triple peak.

The hike began one early morning in June, we left Victoria at 4 am and arrived at the gravel road by 7:30. Having the truck we were able to get all the way to the trailhead. The logging road was pretty well maintained but has some large potholes in it. heading up a steeper area we passed several cars that couldn’t make it any further. Driving past the small bridge, we offered a couple a ride in the back of the truck on the way up.
