About
This small site is located along the river bank just before the bridge crossing. The site provides natural camping pads and the basic amenities of tables, fire rings and a pit toilet. During the late summer portions of the sandy river bottom are exposed and provide opportunity for a scenic walk along the river. Anglers may have some luck with catching rainbow trout, whitefish or bull trout, however the river remains murky year round due to glacial feeding. This site is generally fairly quiet but is popular for fall hunting camps. Also check out the Kittil Falls located only a 9km drive up the Sande FSR.
Road access. User-maintained site with no regular servicing. First come, first served.
Getting there: Travel 16.5kms east of Prince George, turn left on to the Upper Fraser Rd heading toward the Willow River Community. Continue ~63kms (paved) until you reach the single lane bridge over the Fraser River. Turn right onto the Sinclair Road, and at 0.5 km turn left onto the Pass Lake FSR. The site is located at approx. km 47, just before the bridge over the river.
