Nature
Norbury Lake Provincial Park is a ninety-seven-hectare park in British Columbia’s East Kootenay region, south of Fort Steele in the Rocky Mountain Trench, with views toward the Hughes Range and The Steeples. The park contains Peckham’s Lake and the northernmost section of Norbury Lake, both once called Norbury Lake after F. Paget Norbury, a Fort Steele magistrate in the late nineteenth century; Peckham’s Lake was renamed after he sold nearby land to the Peckham family. Its open water and regional forest support varied wildlife and rainbow trout, and the park serves as a compact recreation area for camping, fishing, hiking, cycling, swimming, and non-motorised boating.
