September 26th 2010 is Rivers Day!
Join the festivities to celebrate and protect the rivers of our landscape on Sunday, Sept. 26--BC and World Rivers Day. Meet at the Walcott Bridge at 9:30 am to paddle in your own craft, or join experienced paddlers who will take you downstream (contact Gladys Atrill at 250.846.5245 or

to book a seat).
Or hike in, meeting Brent at 9:30 at the Quick Chalet.
When the flotilla arrives at the new Bulkley River Recreation Site, festivities will begin: a Wet'suwet'en welcome; announcement of the winners of the Children's River Art Contest; draw prizes; live music (String Licorice and Twisted Strings) and a complimentary salmon bar-b-que lunch and hot beverage, donated by SkeenaWild and Glacier Toyota.
Then it's back in the rafts or canoes for paddlers, or back to the trails for hikers. Paddlers can pull out at the Quick Bridge, or continue further downstream.
Wear warm clothing--and we'll celebrate the river, come rain or shine.

Wow! What a great site...Lakeside camping, with sites spread out around the lake, connected by a 3 km trail, with a brand new huge cedar deck! Just minutes from Burns Lake this site is easily accessible, with a parking lot, and day-use area set up from the dock. If you are into riding, there is a bike park less than a kilometer from the parking lot. A less then 20minute drive up Boer Mtn Road from the lot will take you to the top, leaving you with a choice between 5 great downhill trails taking you back to the parking lot (which you can then follow through to your site!) or one other to Star Lake. A great family destination! Check out the map I picked up from the Info center. The Rec Site Parking is the parking symbol on Kager Lake, and the campsites are located all along the green trail surrounding the lake.
