4:12 That little lake is cold even in the middle of the summer. One of my favorite hikes when I lived in the Wack. If you give yourself enough time you can hit both summits. Lady Peak and Cheam.
Did you drive through Chipmunk Creek Forest Service Road? If you don't have a 4x4 vehicle and you want to go to the mountain by walking only, how many hours does it take through the steep mountain entrance from Chilliwack Lake Road?
interesting. drove past Cheam many times and admired it. Never climbed it. At 5.47 you have a vista with Baker at right; do you know the name of the mtn next over with the large ice field?
I would join the Chilliwack hiking group on Facebook so you can monitor snow conditions just to be sure. Lol I live by it so I see it everyday and it's still quite snow packed
How bad is it? Our Rental is gonna be a Crossover SUV (like a Toyota Rav 4 or Honda CRV). I really wan tto do this hike but if it isn't practical, we'd rather spend our time on a different hike. We're going in a week (so mid August)
Nice video man! I am planning to do this on the coming weekend. I have two questions 1) is my full crew cab ram 4x4 be okay for this trip.2) how steep is the trail near mt. Cheam at the end? Is it scary? Taking my 14 year old with me.
Your truck should be fine I haven't been up this year so don't know how winter was on it. If you have Facebook join the Chilliwack BC hiking group for trail updates
It’s pronounced Chee-yam. From the Halq’emeylem word Xwchiyom which is the name of a village at the base of the mountain on the Fraser river. The actual Halq’emeylem place name for Mt. Cheam is Lhílhleqy.
Any more hiking videos? Check out my hikes for reference. I will try to film the drive to eacharea so people can find there way.
Thanks for sharing this video

Wow amazing video! Thanks for sharing. How long did you take walking from parking to spoon valley?
Whoa! Thanks for the video, this is on my list, hopefully it can be done Mid May. Are the views here the best in the Fraser Valley?

Epic production. Really well done and helpful.
The road seemed pretty narrow, is there a separate road for the cars coming down or do you have to reverse it until they pass?
They're usually some pull outs along the way so if you see someone coming down the way go in to the pull out
Great video! it looks like alot of fun!
Can sUv like chev traverse can go up to cheam parking lot?
Nice directions on how to get there!!!
well done video - thanks for sharing rich!
