View source for Lillooet Icefield

The Lillooet icefield is the most accessible of the large coast range icefields from Vancouver, and is very well suited to sled based ski touring

==Access==
There are four main access points to the icefield, plus you can fly in by helicopter or ski plane

===Slim Creek===
From Goldbridge, logging roads and then a snowmobile trail up Slim creek give access to alpine country at the head of the creek.  Continuing west over gentle ridges and glaciers gives easy access to the North Bridge Glacier and then onto the main part of the icefield

===Salal Creek===

A logging road up salal creek doesn't make it to treeline, but it's not far from the end of the road to easy skiing where the valley opens up.


===Tchaikazan Valley===

It's a long drive to the Taseko Lake from Vancouver, but the road to Taseko Lake Lodge is plowed.  At the south end of the lake (20km more) is the head of the Tchaikazan Valley, which can be reached by vehicle is there isn't too much snow around.  Skiing up the Tchaikazan gives access to Mt. Monmouth and the northern portion of the icefield.

===Meager Creek===

Coming from Meager creek, the icefield can be reached by skiing a high ridge connecting the manatee range with the high plateau around Mt. Dalgliesh.  This approach is steep and difficult, and not well suited to sleds.  It's better used as an exit than an approach.
