Elevation data may be highly variable by device or mapping platform. Different software may use various data sources and calculation methods. Trailforks elevation estimates are typically 25% higher than what you would see on Strava or your GPS device.
A big thank-you to our hosts at Whiteswan Lake, the Kennelly family, where we will camp on their private property. The shining waters of two mountain lakes, Whiteswan and Alces, and a natural hot springs are the focal points of Whiteswan Lake area. Those not racing may enjoy a visit to Lussier Hot Springs located at km 17.5 on the Whiteswan Forest Service Road.
