Fires
are only permitted in the 3 communal fire pits.
No fires are allowed in individual sites due to
a clean air policy within the park. Firewood can
be purchased from the Park Facility Operator in
some parks or you can bring your own wood. Fees
for firewood are set locally and may vary. To preserve
vegetation and ground cover, please don't gather
firewood from the area around your campsite or elsewhere
in the park. Dead wood is an important habitat element
for many plants and animals and it adds organic
matter to the soil. You can conserve firewood and
air quality by keeping your campfire small. Limited
burning hours or campfire bans may be implemented
and some parks may use communal fire rings. Be prepared
to bring a portable stove for cooking.

 |
There are no electrical hook-ups in this park. |
 |
There

 |
Enjoy
the coolness of the lush forests along the trails beside
Angus Creek. A bridge over the creek leads to the mudflats
of the estuary where a variety of waterfowl and shorebirds
can be observed. Harbour seals and bald eagles may be
seen year-round. Please keep a safe, respectful distance
when viewing wildlife, and keep dogs on a leash. For
your own safety and the preservation of the park, obey
posted signs and keep to designated trails. Shortcutting
trails destroys plant life and soil structure.
