Arctic Pacific Lakes Provincial Park
The main feature of this provincial park are the three samll lakes that are found straddling the Continental Divide. Two of the lakes eventually empty into the Pacific, while Arctic Lake drains into the Arctic, creating a unique watershed. The lakes are turquoise in colour and are backdropped by mountain peaks and ridges. The park protects a high value fall and spring grizzly habitat, so visitors must be aware of potential human/bear conflicts. Road access to the park is limited.
