Hull Hill Snowshoeing

Kamloops Trails Posted on 2025-01-26 by dsmith2025-01-25  
Anderson Creek

We drove up the Lac le Jeune Road, then turned east onto the Goose Lake Road.   A short way down the road is a snowy backroad that angles southeast.    The road has a number of branch roads (some new ones), but the main branch crosses Anderson Creek, then winds up the western flank of Hull Hill.    We parked at the start of this double track.     A few people snowshoe the area so the first part of the road has been packed down and has lots of parking.    There are few tracks leading off in different directions, but we chose a single track the climbs to the south.

The stomped-in track winds through thinned forests to a cutblock.  We followed a single track which goes to and across Anderson Creek.   We then went up to the old Jack Booth homestead and out to the main double track.

We followed the double track as it wound south, then started to switchback up Hull Hill.    The treed slopes were burned in a forest fire in recent years.    The open ridges were a result of logging the burned forests.    We continued up through the douglas fir and lodgepole pine forests and plantations to a high point.

On our way back we had sunny skies and extended views over the mountain tops all the way to Dunn Peak.   The valleys were cloudy or foggy.

Our snowhoe outing brought us back to Anderson Creek.   We chose to do a loop route back to the trailhead, completing a 6 km (2 hour) snow stomp.

We have been snowshoeing on Hull Hill now for about 35 years.     There have been a number of changes (logging, fires, and use), but it remains a good choice for winter out-of-the-way snowshoeing close to town.
