Marble Canyon Provincial Park & Pavilion Lake: Enjoy a scenic drive through the Marble Canyon and rugged Pavilion Mountain Range. The limestone canyon in which Marble Canyon Provincial Park is located is a quite rare geological formation in British Columbia. Popular with fishermen and birders, and a great spot for a picnic lunch or a stopping spot on your road trip if you're heading towards Whistler/Vancouver on Hwy 99. A small, quiet campground, set between two small lakes Turquoise and Crown has a small day-use area and is a good stopping spot. Good opportunities for hiking, and swimming at the small sandy beach on Crown Lake. Pit toilets here. To get here, head back down Loon Lake Road to Hwy 97, turn left towards Cache Creek. After 10km turn right onto Highway 99 towards Lillooet/Whistler, drive approx 30km until you reach the signs for Marble Canyon and Turquoise & Crown Lake. Continuing a few kilometers down the road will take you to the gorgeous and incredibly clear Pavilion Lake. Pavilion Lake is most notable for being the home to a unique microbialite (type of sedimentary deposit) and is the subject of astrobiology research by NASA, the Canadian Space Agency and research institutions around the world. The lake is a beautiful clean swimming lake, though public access is limited. As you drive along the lake you will see a stopping point with an information sign (just across from the tiny island) - this is a good spot to stop for a nice jump in the water!

Pavillion Lake, located in Marble Canyon Provincial Park is about a 30 minute drive from Lillooet, and is one of my favorite places in BC. The lake is crystal clear and is one of only 2 freshwater lakes discovered that has coral and is being researched as a way to trace back life forms from 2.5 billion to 540 million years ago.
