Palmers Pond

Back Country Trail
Palmer's Pond is on the Hudson's Bay Brigade Trail about 1 1/2 hr west of Jacobsen Lake. The point where the HBC trail crosses the Tulameen FS road is marked with a sign about 1 km past Jacobsen Lake. From this point you can ride the trail in either direction. East takes you down along Podunk creek, west climbs up past Palmer's Pond (6100' elev) and through an unnamed alpine pass to Camp du Chevreuil then down to the Sowaqua creek drainage.
