About this site

Source

Climbers built this one. Eldred River, also called the Colin Arthur Dionne Memorial Climbers Camp, is a base camp for people working the walls of the Eldred Valley, put together by locals for exactly that.

Camping is first come, first served on gravel, and no site count is on record, so treat it as a rough base rather than a numbered campground.

The Emma Lake Cabin trailhead is about 3 km away and Scrub Lake about 4 km. Supplies are distant: t̓ɩšosəm is about 39 km out and the nearest fuel about 38 km, so fill up and shop before you head in.
