Mount Killam & Amigos Peak Hike | Backcountry Camping at Gambier Lake on Gambier Island, BC
On the weekend of June 8-9, we ferried to Gambier Island where we backpacked to Gambier Lake via Mount Killam and Amigos Peak. The trail to Gambier Lake over Mount Killam was 12.5 km. On our return trip to the ferry, we took the 10km Gambier Lake Trail, which bypasses the summit (22.5km overall distance). The entire trip had 1,122m elevation gain, most of which was hiking over Killam and Amigos. Gambier Lake is a great spot to backcountry camp. Not too many other hikers on this trail. If you have any questions, feel free to ask and I'll answer as best I can!
THE STORMAWAY FERRY FROM LANGDALE TO GAMBIER ISLAND IS CASH ONLY ($7.30 AT THE TIME OF FILMING).

Nice! Chilliwack has some of the best trails in BC

I cant imagine that tiny pack has room for the NSSR 10 essentials
Hi Sammy, thanks so much for the comment. You can rest assured that I never head into the backcountry without my ten essentials. I’ve put a lot of work into acquiring the ultralight necessities that allow me to travel light while also staying safe. Here’s a quick list of all the 10 essentials that fit into that little daypack of mine: 1) Light: RovyVon A5 rechargeable flashlight with clip to use as headlamp + battery pack to recharge it 2) Signalling device: whistle 3) Fire starter: Bic lighter 4) Warm clothes: thermal layers + Frogg Toggs ultralight raincoat 5) Knife: Opinel No. 6 6) Shelter: reflective emergency bivy 7) Food & Water: I always bring more food than needed + water filter 8) First aid kit 9) Navigation: clip-on Suumo compass + phone GPS + battery pack 10) Cell phone with satellite access Thanks for watching!
@@calebsavage wow! well done!!
Hi Caleb. i will do this hike mid July. Since Bears are everywhere, are there any sightings you heard just recently? i havent encountered bear my whole life. hope you can give some insights. i will do camping too. thank you
I found there were more bear encounters on Burke Mt in Coquitlam than in the N Shore, for myself. Bring a bear sack/canister , keep away from camp and carry bear spray/bangers just in case. I did have a cougar encounter in Lynn Headwaters two weeks ago. I’m also doing this trail mid July too if you’d like to double up for safety.
@@sammymua9888thanks for the info.. which exact date you will go? your contact please.
amazing video!!!!
This is brilliant man, views are simply unmatched here! Brilliant work!
You’re back!! 🙌🏼🙌🏼
You’re back!! 🙌🏼🙌🏼
Oh weird! We saw you guys on this hike. Glad you made it. :)
Oh no way! Was great crossing paths with you guys. That last 45 minutes to the bluffs really flew by haha
Nice! I backpacked with a friend and did Mount Artaban and Burt's Bump last year; we hoped to also tackle these peaks you guys did, but ran out of time/energy. Looks like they've got some great views!
Oh awesome! I saw that some people do a full circuit around Gambier (Killam, Liddell, Gambier Peak, Burt's, and Artaban) but Killam and Amigos were enough for us haha. I'll have to head back sometime and cross the other peaks off my list. Thanks so much for the comment!
Glad to see your return.
did you go up for a bit, then come back down to grab your camera, and then go back up?
Hi, yes! Retrieving my camera after every shot made the hike quite a bit longer than it needed to be haha. Thanks for commenting!
Amazing video. Thanks for sharing. sub & 👍32
thanks for the video... your content is really cool.. hope we can hike together
Is on April or May?
I hiked this in the last week of April last year
How long does it roughly take to go in and out?
Took about 6 hours with filming, so probably something closer to 4/5 hours if you're just hiking
How long was it from parking lot to green drop?
Great video!
how long did the hike take going up?
🤩🤩🤩 This is spectacular 😍😍😍 🤩🤩 😍
Great ! thank you for sharing. How long did it take you guys to complete it? And what about coming back?
Great video, Caleb! Imma go there tomorrow
Great video. Those damn fool hens always scare the crap out of me... they like to wait until the last second before you step on them, and then they'll fly away.
Great video! Looks like quite the epic hike.
Nice! That area is so beautiful!!
Amazing! Love your videos 🎉 could you do a ‘what I pack/wear on hikes’ video at some point? Recently started hiking 🙌🏾
Hey Liku! Glad you like the videos :) Totally, I'm thinking of recording a "what I pack" video in the next couple months, and maybe a gear review or two of some of the stuff I use. Thanks so much for the comment!
@@calebsavage that’d be great! A gear review would be AMAZING! Looking forward to it, thanks Caleb 🎉🤍
Such a great vid!!🎉
Such a great vid!!🎉

Great video - when was this taken?
Glad you liked it! We hiked this on the weekend of September 16, 2023 :)
Stunning views!! Great video 😄
What was the date of this?
I hiked this trail May 6, 2023
Where did you park?
Hi, I took public transit to this hike. The bus dropped me off about a 10 minute walk from the trailhead.
Thanks for the info on Reddit about the pack. Love that you can fit bear spray in that strap pocket. Very awesome. New sub!
really nice !! trail for family and so simple and beautiful!! SUB and LIKED !!
I did this hike awhile back. It was a lot tougher than it looks
He went the other way, 2500 m gain is from pc. From cypress is less then 2000. Still long and hard though, I want to do both versions
Is there any wildlife that you should be aware of while hiking this island?
Hi Sarah, there is always the potential of running into something like a bear, but from what I hear and have read online, they are quite rare on Bowen Island. You should be totally fine.
BEAUTIFUL
Very fun - those drone shots are always crazy! Another reason to move closer to y'all I guess!
Wow I love the drone shots!
Lk 8 amazing hiking 6:50 ❤🔔❤ see you around
What a great way to spend time with friends. Beautiful nature shots. ❤

Outstanding video, be safe.
Thanks Dave, appreciate the comment!
Awesome video, amazing views. New friend here.
Hi Caleb, Is it a difficult hike to go with a toddler?
Hi! This hike can be quite steep at times and there are a few sections where you need to use your hands, so it might be a tough one to do with a toddler.
