About this site

Source

Two camping spots, a rough cartop launch and a quiet lake in the Fort St. James area: Takatoot Lake keeps things simple, and the fishing is what brings people down the road.

Both spots are first come, first served, on gravel. The access gets slippery when it rains, so a wet forecast is worth factoring into the plan.

Middle River is the closest town at about 27 km. No fuel is listed nearby, so arrive with a full tank and food for the whole stay.
