Rickey Lake (Merritt)

Site Description: The recreation site is popular with fishing, hunting and camping enthusiasts. The site actually has 2 distinct areas with one of them right along the main road and quite sunny. The second site, just a little further west, is more shady. All sites are suitable for mid sized trailer and fifth wheels, truck campers and tenters.

Driving Directions: Located north of Pike Mountain. From the junction of HWY 5 and 5A/97C, South East of Merritt take HWY 5A/97C 23 kms East to the Aspen Grove turn-off. Follow HWY 5A south for 24 kms and turn right on Pike Mtn. Forest Service Road. At about the 1 km mark turn right, proceed 1. 7 km and turn left, go 0.4 km further and keep to the right and drive 6.7 km up this rough road. You will see some sites along this main road but if you go just a bit further keep to the right and there are more sites at the south west end of the lake.
