Grouse Ridge Area - West & North Sides:

Most of the popular destinations are accessed via Bowman Lake Road along the west side of the area.

Above the Bowman Lake Dam the road continues around the north side of the Grouse Ridge Area but here it becomes a primitive road that is best travelled by high clearance vehicles. Trailers or RVs are not recommended. The upper end of Bowman Lake can also be reached via Jackson Meadows Reservoir. See individual locations for directions.
