On Ross Moore Lake
Ross Moore Lake is a pleasant lake in the Lac le Jeune area, but its not easy to get to. The best road access is to drive out onto the Brigade Lake Road, then turn onto the Long Lake Road. After the last ranch, the road is not maintained very often so it will requires some slower driving on backroads, turning onto the Ross Moore FSR and continuing for another 6.5 km. There is a small BC Recreation site at the southeast end of the lake where visitors can park, then launch a boat. On this summer day, though, we drove across the dam on the south side and parked at a small pullout there.
Ross Moore is a quiet spot surrounded by forest at 1280m (4200 feet).
A paddle around the lakeshore is 3.4 km.
On the journey home, we drove the same road back, but then turned onto the McConnell Forest Service Road which took us back to the Lac le Jeune Road in 13 km. We like the Long Lake Road a little better since it is more scenic, but either road is about the same in terms of road quality and distance.
