Wells Gray Provincial Park

Known as the "Waterfall Park", Wells Gray contains 1.3 million acres of wilderness. The park is characterized by climate extremes, with frequent summer thunderstorms and snow that lingers until mid-April. Formerly extremely volcanic, the park is heavily glaciated, an ideal habitat for at least 50 different mammals, and 170 species of birds. Spectacular hikes are a trademark of this park; Helmcken Falls, Canada's highest and twice as high as Niagara, is one of the most popular. Three campgrounds in the park have a total of 88 sites. Camping fees are charged from May to September.

This is just one of hundreds of British Columbia Provincial Parks.
