what to expect

This campground provides ready access to Fox Lake (Kwätän ʼaya*), a favourite for boating and fishing. There is a playground, boat launch, dock and walk-in tenting sites available. The sheltered bay at the south end of the lake makes for a great canoeing spot. Muskrats are a common sight as they feed on aquatic vegetation.
