About
A one-unit campsite located in a large grassy field high above Guyishton Lake. Access is narrow and rough so limited to small, 4WD vehicles or walk in, approx. 600 m.
Trail access only. Maintained to Recreation Sites and Trails BC standards by a partner or contractor. Facilities on file: toilets, picnic tables, fire rings. First come, first served.
Getting there: From Hwy 35, south of Burns Lake, turn right on Mackenzie FSR and follow for approx. 3.5 km to the rough road on the left that accesses the site. Parking is just past the turn-off in a pull-out.
