We have scheduled our trips around the most attractive parts of the
year. You will have a good chance of seeing wildlife, especially early
in the morning and at dusk. In September, we usually have our Indian Summer,
the weather is settled, there are fewer people, and the insects have subsided.

Even if you have never paddled before you should have no problem. Your
guide will teach you how to handle the canoe, determine your level of paddling
experience and show both basic and more advanced maneuvers. If you are
in reasonable good physical shape your trip will be more enjoyable.
The beauty of the Bowron Lake Provincial Park
will take your breath away. This is total relaxation - with some physical
work involved. No phones, no tv, no cars... just you and nature.

Tour
Guides
-
Our guides are professional and certified guides and instructors, well
trained in wilderness first aid, and have extensive experience in the outdoors.
To make your trip safe and enjoyable there will be two guides on each trip.
Please arrive at the lodge in the afternoon the day before your trip begins.
This will give the guide and the assistant time to go with the group to
the lake to give you the first contact with the other group members and
your canoe. For beginners there is plenty of time to learn the important
strokes and how to handle the canoe.

Itinerary

In the morning we start after breakfast with the first portage to Kibbee
Lake. The canoes are put on wheels and some of the gear will be put in
the canoe and some will be carried in backpacks. Our first campground is
#7 on Indian Point Lake. The second day we stay at the spectacular Wolverine
Bay at site #13. On day three we paddle to the middle of Isaac Lake, opposite
to Betty Wendle Creek site #20. On day four we go to the end of Isaac Lake,
site #28 - beautiful scenery! The next morning we do the "Chute" and the
Cariboo River up to Lanezi Lake, site #33 on Turner Creek. On day six we
paddle to site #41, Rum Lake, to many people the favorite spot. The morning
of day 7, we hike to the Cariboo Falls, then we paddle to site #47 on Spectacle
Lake, your last night on the lakes. Enjoy it! In the late afternoon of
day 8, you will return to the lodge where you will have a nice hot shower
and enjoy a fine dinner in the lake view restaurant, together with your
tour comrades.
