Park
Info:
Thunder Hill Provincial Park protects remnant open forested
and grassland lake ecosystems of the East Kootenay Trench.
The park serves an integral role in providing winter range
for ungulates and functions as a corridor for a host of
species in the area.
Originally developed in the 1960’s as a fully serviced
campground, Thunderhill Provincial Park was under utilized
for many years. In the early 1990’s, services to
the park were discontinued, including deactivation of
all entrance roads, day use amenities and campsites. The
site has reverted back to a natural state with no formal
signage identifying the park.
