Sasquatch Provincial Park

Sasquatch Provincial Park in British Columbia’s District of Kent, north of Harrison Hot Springs, spans 1,217 hectares of pocket lakes, mountain ridges, and second-growth and birch forest. Established in 1959 as the 20-hectare Green Point Park, it expanded in 1960 and was greatly enlarged and renamed in 1968. Its present name comes from Sasquatch, a Halkomelem Salish word linked to the cryptid associated with the area. The park supports diverse wildlife, including frogs, beavers, mountain goats, bears, deer, elk, reptiles, fish, birds, and black petaltail dragonflies, while also serving as a popular destination for camping, hiking, paddling, fishing, and other lake recreation.
