About Phantom Lake
Phantom lake is a dazzling turquoise-colored glacial lake hanging high in the Coast Mountains. At one end, water feeds into the lake from the ancient glaciers of Mt Jimmy Jimmy and Tzoonie Mountain while at the other, it escapes via a towering cascading waterfall. When you fly past it, you'll feel like you are in a movie!
Even though Phantom Lake is only a 20 minute flight from Squamish Airport, its location makes it inaccessible for most people. The seclusion of Phantom Lake is one of the reasons why it is loved by people who want to wander off the beaten path.

Phantom Lake is south west of Whistler, north west of Squamish, and north of Gibsons on the Sunshine Coast. Nearby mountains include Mount Jimmy Jimmy, Phantom Mountain, Colquhoun Peak, Ossa Mountain, Pelion Mountain, and Tzoonie Mountain. You will fly right underneath the foot of Rumbling Glacier and over the iconic Tantalus Mountains that you can see from the Sea To Sky Highway on the drive between Vancouver and Whistler.
