7 Mile Lake

Facilities

About

This is a small site, semi-forested with mature Larch and Lodgepole Pine trees, with a central grassy, open area. Most of the sites are well-shaded, as the recreation site is nestled in a valley bottom. The site is located adjacent to Seven Mile Lake, a small shallow, weedy lake which is the headwaters of Caven Creek. The lake has a steep shoreline and is treed right to the water on the south shore, but a rough trail along the north side of the lake provides access to the deeper portion of the lake which is suitable for fishing. The lake is stocked with Cutthroat trout every other year. The site is located right on the main FSR but traffic is not excessive at this point.
