True that. Although we managed to get away with some rowdy teenager shenanigans at Chilliwack Lake a few times.
haha I remember going up to Golden Ears one year when we were underaged. Park Ranger drove by in an unmarked vehicle and caught us pouring Bacardi into a 2L pop bottle. Was pretty chill about it though.

down part is, gotta go on logging roads to get there.
basically drive about 20-25km on the logging roads until someone in a reflector vest greets you. i think it was like $25 dollar a car. and then drive in until you like the spot. park, camp.

Stave Lake. Lower car friendly. Downhill dusty/gravel road. Easy to get to.
Jones Lake. NOT lower car friendly AT ALL. Uphill rocky/bumpy ride. Make sure you have all your food/supplies. Stores are not close by.

The mozzies are starting to get pretty bad around Silver. Not quite as bad at Ross where I was for the weekend but still bring plenty of afterbite if you're headed up that way.

Party down, guys - we got nicely maintained gravel roads, 1500' of lake frontage, lots of clear front yard for tents... no cell service, but there is a landline to call BCAA.
Here's the cabin:
Oops, wrong pic, this is the one:
Gak! That's the doghouse... try it again:

Besides, you can't go wrong with Manning. Hike a bit and you're near the water for canoeing and shit. OP did say no need for running water, toilets, etc....... real camping, LOL. E C Manning Provincial Park - BC Parks
The last time I went camping with my friends at Manning was during high school days, so things might have changed a bit. I believe we went to Poland Lake with our canoes. If I had to do that today, I would die from the hike. https://maps.google.ca/maps?client=s...ed=0CBUQ8gEwAg | Quote:

Alpine Meadows, canoeing, hiking or trail walking, laying on the beach, swimming, feeding the ground squirrels (  ), etc...
Manning is one of my favorite places in the world....I was also lucky enough to work their as a park ranger one summer. | How strict are they with noise? First time going, and I'm pretty sure we're going to be quite loud haha.
