To get to Wave Crest Peak, we have to drive to Blue River, then go up into the mountains on the Murtle Lake Forest Service Road.    From the trailhead to Murtle Lake, we have to portage our boat and gear for 2.5 km to the lagoon launch.     The canoe or kayak has to be loaded and it is a two hour paddle up to the Strait Creek Marine Campsite.    the trailhead to Wave Crest Peak is across the creek.    We were able to ford the creek.   At high water, you can paddle up the lake and land on the shore at the trailhead.    After securing the boat it is about a 3 hour hike to this point, overlooking a tarn in the Wavy Range.    This is a remote and rugged spot, one I hope to return to hike again.
