The park was established to protect unique species such as the (protected) Gerrard Rainbow Trout (the largest in the world-up to 50 lb) and the distinct subspecies of "White Grizzly " for which the park was first named. There are no facilities in this wilderness park, other than rudimentary trails and backcountry campsites. The park is 879.47 km&2 in size, and borders Kootenay Lake in the British Columbia Rockies. The area surrounding the park is known for its mining ghost towns from the turn of the century. |
