Pinecone Burke Provincial Park

Pinecone Burke Provincial Park is a 38,000-hectare protected wilderness in southwestern British Columbia, extending from Burke Mountain to Pitt Lake and toward Garibaldi Provincial Park. Known for its rugged, largely unserviced backcountry, it includes forested slopes, wetlands, alpine lakes, and high peaks such as Pinecone Peak and Meslilloet Mountain. The area was once used for logging and mining, and traces of that industrial era remain. After conservation campaigns in the late 1980s and early 1990s, the park was established in 1995. It also lies within the territories of the Katzie, Kwikwetlem, and Stó:lō First Nations and is valued today for both recreation and wildlife habitat.
