Mysteries of Cameron Lake, a Spectacular Lake in British Coulmbia, Canada

Day 6 - Cameron Lake, British Columbia

Nanaimo, British Columbia, Canada

After our lunch stop at Nanaimo, British Columbia, we continued our driving trip along the south west of the BC coast.

















Along the way, we passed by beautiful lakes, dense forests and some nice scenic spots.

 
We got very excited when we  passed by a beautiful lake surrounded by tall mountains.

With such beautiful scenery around us, we thought there would be a lookout point somewhere.

However, we had to keep driving for sometime before reaching a safe picnic spot where we could have an opportunity for taking pictures of this beautiful lake.

This beautiful lake we happened to come upon was Cameron Lake.

It is situated in the traditional territory of the Kwalikum

Nation.

The scenery of Cameron Lake is spectacular with the Rocky Mountains as its backdrop!

 

Cameron Lake is beautiful, deep and mysterious. It is also the subject of local rumors which include:

The lake is:

bottomless,
it is too cold for swimming;
it is inhabited by a lake monster!

Cameron Lake looks spectacular with high mountains as its backdrop. Some people say that the scenery at Cameron Lake looks as good as Lake Louis in Banff!

Regardless of what the rumors about Cameron Lake are, we love the scenery.!
