[Alternately, travel to the south end of Hwy 742 / Smith-Dorrien Road where it joins Kananaskis Lakes Road. Turn right and proceed southwest on Kananaskis Lakes Road 10.3 km. Turn left (south) at “Upper Lake” sign and left again at the “T” intersection to the unpaved parking area.]

Remarks:
Is there a gravel road on the planet that has broken as many hearts as this one? We doubt it.

The filmmakers had a problem here. A distracting public washroom stands to the right where the road curves. Sharp-eyed viewers of the film can spot the washroom building roof through the cluster of staked trees installed by the location crew.

Staked trees were useful in many scenes in the film. They hid an entire road at Mud Lake (“It’s gonna snow tonight for sure.”) and a path at Goat Creek (Campsite #2). A few discarded staked trees can be found in the woods near Campsites #1 and #2.

Quotation:
“I just can’t stand this anymore, Jack.”
