About this site

Source

Snag Lake puts its campsites on a bench just above the water, at the point where the river empties out, in the Quesnel area. It is a small site with a boat launch and fishing, and the back portion is burnt over, so camping there is discouraged.

There are three sites, first come, first served, on gravel access.

This is a long way from anything: Punchaw is about 50 km off and the nearest fuel, the Three Nations Store & Lodge, is about 54 km. Buy everything you need before the drive in. Chuniar Lake is about 4 km away.
