Pink Mountain Provincial Park

Pink Mountain Provincial Park in northeastern British Columbia protects a high-elevation foothills landscape along the Rocky Mountains that combines important fossil remains from the Mesozoic Era with rich mountain ecology. Traditionally used by the Sekani and Dunneza, the region later saw fur trade activity, and access expanded after the Alaska Highway was built in 1943. Protection was recommended in 1997 and the park was established in 1999. Its forests, tundra, and diverse plant life support caribou, elk, moose, bears, lynx, fisher, wolverine, established plains bison, and notable arctic butterflies at the southern edge of their range.
