Bugaboo Park.

The hound's tooth of the Bugaboo glacier.

While camping at Dry Gulch Provincial Park near Radium Hot Springs, during our road trip 2024, we visited Bugaboo Park. 
I found it unspoilt, remote, stunning and not crowded.

 

We saw Mountain sheep, Black bears, a Grizzly and a wolf.

 

Bugaboo Park.

"Located in the Purcell Mountains of southeast British Columbia, Bugaboo Park draws climbers from around the world to its airy, glacier-sculpted granite spires. With many peaks over 3,000 m, the Bugaboos offer awe-inspiring mountain and glacier terrain." - B. C. Parks

"If staying in the park overnight, wrap the base of your vehicle with the chicken wire provided at the lot. Porcupines have a penchant for chewing, and the wire prevents the little critters from feasting on your beloved brake lines and tires." - Expedition portal.

"The Bugaboo Provincial Park and Alpine Recreation Area is located northwest of Radium Hot Springs. The Park contains the largest icefields of the ancient Purcell Mountains and towering granite summits exceeding 3,000 metres (9,900 ft) in height. These mountains, bounded by the Rocky Mountain Trench on the east, are ancient in comparison to the Rockies. Originating over 1,500 million years ago, when the only form of life on earth was algae, it was not until the era of the dinosaurs that the Purcells acquired the Rocky Mountains as a neighbouring range."- Read more-Kootenay Rockies.
