About this site

Source

You park and walk the last short stretch into Burns Lake, and the payoff is a campsite right on the shoreline near Grand Forks. Fishing and a place to put a boat in are the draws.

It is one site, first come, first served, and the road in calls for a 4x4. Walking in means carrying your kit, so pack with that in mind.

Renata is about 28 km away and the nearest fuel, a Canco, about 42 km. Treat Renata as the last chance for anything you forgot, and buy gas earlier still.
