Muncho Lake Provincial Park

Muncho Lake Provincial Park in northern British Columbia lies along the Alaska Highway in the northernmost Canadian Rockies west of Fort Nelson and forms part of the Muskwa-Kechika Management Area. Centered on vivid blue Muncho Lake, whose color comes from copper oxides leached from bedrock, the park is also known for striking folded mountains and rock formations in its southern section. It protects a northern wilderness corridor inhabited by bears, wolves, lynx, mountain goats, stone sheep, caribou, and moose, while the lake supports Arctic grayling, lake trout, bull trout, and whitefish. Limited facilities serve road travelers, campers, boaters, and lake tour visitors.
