Liard River Hotsprings (RV day 11 : Wed May 28)

After filling up on gas and propane in Fort Nelson, we started our drive to Summit Lake in the Stone Mountain Provincial Park. We briefly tried to walk around the lake, but cut our hike short due to mosquitos. As we drove down the mountain, we saw six bears (including what we assume was a momma bear and two cubs), a herd of bison, and lots of stone sheep. We stopped at the Salt Lick Viewing Area near Muncho Lake for a quick hike to view salt lick (but sadly no animals licking the salt) followed by lunch in the RV. Finally, we headed to Liard River Hot Springs Provincial Park for a dip in the hot springs. As expected, the hot springs were hot and the facilities were quite nice (except for the lack of a shower).

Our campsite was the Liard Hotsprings Lodge (across the street from Liard River Hot Springs Provincial Park). I would not recommend this campsite. In retrospect, we should have dry camped at the provincial park instead of staying here.
