| Newton Lake
Trail is located on Quadra Island in the Discovery Islands of BC.
This hike along the Small Inlet route begins as a fairly easy forest
trail passing other lakes on the way to Newton Lake. Beyond, a more
strenuous route follows an old prospectors' trail down to a promontory
in Small Inlet, then links with an old portage route (which can be
wet) to Waiatt Bay.
Follow Granite
Bay Road north to within 200m of Granite Bay. Turn right onto a
rough road and continue for 600m to a fork. Stay left for this trailhead.
Allow 2 hours return to Newton Lake and 4½ hours return to
Waiatt Bay.
