Cummins Lakes Provincial Park and Protected Area

Cummins Lakes Provincial Park and Protected Area is a mountainous protected area in eastern interior British Columbia at the head of the Cummins River northeast of Kinbasket Lake. Established on August 4, 2000, it was created to protect wilderness along the river. Named for two alpine lakes on the Cummins River, the area includes glacial meltwater flowing from the Clemenceau Icefields, a series of three waterfalls, and the valley route to the southeastern arm of Kinbasket Reservoir. It is important for preserving a representative part of the Central Park Ranges ecosection and Engelmann Spruce–Subalpine Fir forest, along with a high-country river landscape shaped by ice and steep terrain.
