On this third visit to Cheam Lake Wetlands I again saw the River Otters. I believe there were two. It was close to shore and I was hoping it would leave the water but it dove and perhaps it has a den under one of the islands in the lake.
The Cheam Wetlands have some interesting birds and landscape. They have recently done some renovations which makes checking out the wildlife a little easier.
I am driving south on the TransCanada Highway towards Vancouver and am half way between Hope and Chilliwack. As I round a bend in the highway I see Mount Cheam rising up from the valley floor. I leave the highway and take a series of three shots from an overpass. Mount Cheam is 2104 m high and is in the Cascade Mountains of southern British Columbia. This north face plunges 2000 meters to the valley floor and is rarely climbed. However an easy trail provides access to the summit from a subalpine bowl to the southwest.
Another spectacular view from Lefeuvre Road in Aldergrove, BC.
Mt. Cheam is the peak on the left of this photo, as viewed from the west.

Mount Cheam and Lady Mountain rising over the valley floor on a snowy day, Chilliwack, British Columbia
Agassiz, BC Canada
Mount Cheam offers a spectacular view from Harrison Mills, BC. On clear days, the peak stands majestically against the skyline, providing a stunning backdrop to the Fraser Valley. The combination of the mountain's rugged beauty and the serene surroundings of Harrison Mills makes it a favorite spot for photographers and nature enthusiasts alike.
Mount Cheam, also known as Cheam Peak, is a stunning mountain located in the Fraser Valley of British Columbia, near Chilliwack. It stands at an elevation of 2,104 meters (6,903 feet) and offers breathtaking 360-degree views of the Fraser Valley, Jones Lake, Mount Baker, and the surrounding peaks.
The hike to the summit is a popular activity, especially from July to October, when the trail is most accessible. The trail is about 9.5 kilometers round-trip with an elevation gain of 700 meters, making it a moderately challenging hike. Along the way, you'll pass through meadows filled with wildflowers, Spoon Lake, and switchbacks leading to the summit.
Reaching the trailhead requires a high-clearance 4x4 vehicle due to the rugged forest service road. The summit offers incredible views, but hikers are advised to stay cautious near the edges, as the terrain can be loose and steep.
Cheam Peak is another name for Mount Cheam—so it's the same breathtaking mountain! It's part of the Cheam Range in the Fraser Valley, known for its majestic presence and stunning panoramas. The peak is a favorite for outdoor enthusiasts, offering a rewarding hike with views of the Fraser River, the city of Chilliwack, and beyond.

Agassiz, BC Canada
One of the most spectacular views in the Fraser Valley, Mount Cheam offers a 360-degree panoramic view from Chilliwack and the communities along the Fraser River, Jones Lake, the surrounding peaks, and Mount Baker to the south.
Cheam is the farthest northerly peak of a small group of peaks forming a local subrange, the Cheam Range, a small group of peaks forming a local subrange of the Skagit Range of the Canadian Cascades mountains (which are the Canadian extension of the North Cascades of Washington).
It dominates the eastern Fraser Valley, rising above Bridal Falls and Agassiz just east of Chilliwack, British Columbia.
It and three sister peaks form a group known as the Four Sisters or Four Brothers, which are part of the mountain wall framing the Lower Mainland; though visible from as far away as Vancouver Island on a clear day, like Cheam does for the Eastern Valley, they are a dominant part of the mountain skyline of Mission and the communities of Hatzic, Dewdney and Deroche.
Behind them is Wahleach Lake, which begins at the east foot of Cheam and lies in a high-altitude valley ringed by the Cheam Range.

An awesome set of clouds over Mt Cheam this evening. They just have to hang on until there is some sunset light...
This Bufflehead was flying quickly across the surface of Lake Cheam. Small waterfowl and fast flyers.
