Buller Pass along Spray Lakes Road is similar in that you follow a creek through the woods for a majority of the distance, but unlike Galatea there is no lake. It is slightly more strenuous than Galatea due to the last bit that goes up to the pass. There is also a nice little waterfall about half way up.
Great view of Mount Assiniboine and Ribbon Lake from the pass. Did this mid July in 2010 and the west side of the pass down to Ribbon Lake was still full of snow.
