About this site

Source

Getting in is the story here. The road to Summit Lake near Parson is rough, crosses a waterway, and wants four-wheel drive with high clearance. The single campsite sits past the beaver pond, about 0.1 km from the water.

It is first come, first served and user-maintained, with fishing the main thing to do once you are parked.

The closest fuel on record is about 12 km away and Nicholson about 26 km, so fill up and shop before you start up the access road.
