Hunting
Logan Lake offers a great location to base a hunting trip out of. Years of forestry operations and mining exploration have provided access roads to what is otherwise wilderness. This wilderness provides an ideal natural habitat for all kinds of game including mule deer, white tail deer, moose and grouse. The bush road network provides access to dozens of recreation sites and the shear expanse of the wilderness makes it unlikely to encounter other hunters.
Disc Golf
Disc golf is one the fastest growing sports in British Columbia, and Logan Lake has one of the wickedest 18-hole courses anywhere. Disc Golf is a game in which individual players throw a disc into a basket or at a target. The object of the game is to traverse a course from beginning to end in the fewest number of throws of the disc. Copper Ridge is one of the best in BC and has elements of every course out there. You’ll enjoy short technical stuff and long Kamloops-style holes. For family enjoyment, take advantage of our disc golf course, this activity is suitable for all ages and it is free. Contact the Logan Lake WHY for information and rentals at 250-523-6229.
