Calling all campers! We are seeing increased bear encounters in the area which while exciting to see, does cause long-term issues for both us and local wildlife.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Many of these sightings are due to our behaviour and we have some quick tips to ensure our camping areas are used appropriately:

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

• Always follow local campground guidelines

• Pack garbage back out with you

• Do not burn garbage on your campfire

• Only use official campsites

• Pack away your food at night

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

If we all follow these basic rules we can continue to enjoy the great outdoors and the array of wildlife that calls it home.
