About this site

Source

High rock bluffs give Rum Cache Lake its shape, and fly fishers are the ones who come for it. Special angling restrictions are posted at the lake, so read the sign before your first cast.

Six sites work on a first come, first served basis. The access road is narrow with steep pitches, which rules out boat trailers and big RVs; a truck with a canoe on the roof is the right kit.

This is remote country in the Vanderhoof area. Nithi River is the nearest community at about 43 km, so bring fuel, water and all your food with you. Murray Lake is about 8 km from camp.
