Duffey Lake is another beautiful scenery along the way during our journey from Sun Peaks to Whistler. There were hundreds of logs piled up at a narrower stretch of the lake. The random pattern in which the tree trunks were stacked up in the water created a unique and spectacular sight. The logs could be trees on the mountain slopes which were uprooted and washed down by the melting glaciers in early summer.

Seton Lake Reservoir

The journey from Sun Peaks to Whistler is about three and a half hours. But we took almost 7 hours to reach the destination due to the several stops we made along the way. Since we did not have any rigid itinerary we could spend as much time as we liked at any scenic spot. The Seton Lake reservoir was one place where we stayed for more than an hour.

Juniper Beach

On our way from Sun Peaks to Whistler, we pulled over whenever we came across any scenery which struck us as something worth seeing.

We saw this one long and winding side path which branched out from the main highway and just ended abruptly at the far end so we took the detour and that brought us to this small beach of a river which is named the Juniper beach and the vicinity is called the Juniper Beach provincial park.
