Getting there: From Campbell River, head north on Highway 19. 26 km north of the Sayward junction(almost immediately after the 260 km marker on the highway), turn right off the highway onto Eve River Main (caution: active haul road). Follow the mainline for 14.5 km, then turn right on to the East Main. Travel another 700 metres or so and the access road to Junction Pool will be on the left.
