🇨🇦 BC's Best-Kept Secret | Wells Gray Provincial Park 🌿

My first visit to Wells Gray was during an Alaskan road trip three years ago. It was late May, and the ranger told me, "Trophy Meadows Trail is usually a flower paradise... but right now, it’s just snow." ❄️ So, I left with only memories of the park’s countless waterfalls—until I returned in mid-June and discovered glacier lilies blanketing the meadows like a golden carpet. And the real surprise? The half-frozen alpine lakes at the trail’s end—absolute magic. ✨ Why Wells Gray? • Waterfalls Galore: Helmcken Falls, Spahats Creek Falls, and dozens more—each more dramatic than the last. • Hidden Lakes & Meadows: Trophy Meadows Trail (June–July) = wildflower explosions + mirror-like tarns. • Less Crowded Than Banff/Jasper: Mostly European tourists (Germans love it!) on the "BC Rockies Loop" (Banff + Jasper + Mt. Robson + Whistler). 📍 Getting There: • Fly into Vancouver or Calgary, then road-trip through BC’s interior. • Airbnb tip: Stay near Clearwater for easy park access! 📸 When to Go: • June–July: Wildflowers + thawing lakes. • August–Sept: Best for waterfall hikes. • Winter: Frozen falls = icy fairyland (but some trails close). #ExploreBC #WellsGray #HiddenCanada #WaterfallChaser #AlpineLakes #RoadTripBC #WildflowerSeason
