Chilcotin Country

The tremendous diversity of British Columbia is never more evident as you travel from the coastal rainforest surrounding Vancouver to the high plateau country of the Chilcotin region and our home at Moose Lake.

Chilcotin Country

The high country of Moose Lake is not so much a step back in time, but a visit to a landscape that only the float plane allows us to experience, and where places like Moosehead Lodge offer a tranquility and fishing adventure like few places left.  

The Chilcotin, and neighbouring Cariboo region, features hundreds of lakes and rivers that are largely untouched and teaming with wild rainbow trout.  The snow-capped mountains in the background frame a landscape that is extremely diverse: rivers and streams dissecting lush pine forests, alpine meadows, desert-like plateaus, towering waterfalls, and hundreds of square miles of people-less terrain. 

Untouched Nature

The variety of wildlife here is equally diverse and unencumbered by human contact: grizzly, deer, caribou and moose; countless species of birds such as pelicans, ducks, geese, loons and enormous blue grouse; and, of course, the fish.

The wild rainbow trout found in lakes such as Moose Lake, and rivers with such famous names as Blackwater and Dean, are abundant in numbers reminiscent of the days when life was lived at a more enviable and slower pace.
