About this site

Source

An open meadow is the setting at Gilnockie Creek, with fishing the main thing on offer and not much else competing for your attention.

The 3 sites are first come, first served with gravel access. The restored Forest Service cabin that used to stand here burned in the 2017 fires, so plan on your own shelter.

Supplies are a haul. Moyie sits about 33 km away with the nearest fuel right beside it, so fill up there and come stocked. Ranger Lake is about 11 km off.
