Temptation is an out-and-back cross-country ski trail in British Columbia, Canada, inside Upper Violet Creek Provincial Park. It is 0.6 miles each way, 1.3 miles there and back. It runs between about 3,020 ft and 3,400 ft above sea level, with roughly 80 ft of climbing one way. It is a lightly prepared backcountry track rather than a machine-groomed trail. The nearest town is Grindrod, about 6.1 miles north of the start. For camping, Rosemond Lake Campground and Whispering Pines are within about 6 miles. There are 100 other mapped trails within about 3 miles, so you can combine or extend the outing. Distances, elevations and the trail shape here come from OpenStreetMap and the Copernicus 90 m elevation model. Grooming and snow conditions change daily, so check the local trail report before you go.
