Park
Info:
This park offers spectacular scenery in a pristine wilderness
area, accessed through a 150 km trail beginning just north
of Trutch on the Alaska Highway. It follows the north side
of the Prophet River, then switches into the Muskwa Valley
and follows the Muskwa to Fern lake. The second trail begins
west of the Sikanni Chief on the Alaska Highway and heads
northward, eventually joining up with the first trail. Kwadacha
houses a diversity of habitat that supports ample wildlife,
ranging from wolves to Siberian lemmings. If you are a bird
enthusiast, this is the place to visit, with over 70 species
of birds including grebes, teals, hawks, falcons, kestrels,
eagles, warblers and even Lapland Longspurs. Watch for signs
of bear activity and make plenty of noise. To help maintain
the natural state of this area, pack out all garbage.
