I have removed my previous message about this Park because it had inaccurate information. BC Parks have advised me that it is not yet officially open for overnight use, so please restrict your use to day use only until an official opening date is announced, hopefully some time this winter after the information kiosk has been installed.

The Park will be paddle-in access and no fires only.

This cup was left behind at the fall fling. Anyone recognize it? If I’m unable to reunite it with it’s owner it will be put into our storage locker.

I would like 1 or more volunteers to join me to work at the Bain Creek marine recreation site on Oct. 5-7  or Oct. 4-6. We would paddle from Porteau Cove to Bain Creek and stay there for 2 nights to work on the site. There are a few things to do but the main task would be strenuous work on the boat run moving rocks.  Contact Philip Kubik (philroku@gmail.com).
