Area A (Kicking Horse/Kinbasket Lake)

Area A is best known within British Columbia for its setting around Kinbasket Reservoir, the long Columbia River impoundment created by Mica Dam. This sparsely settled section of the Columbia Valley lies between the Selkirk Mountains to the west and the Rocky Mountains to the east, where forested slopes and extensive backcountry shape the sense of scale. The reservoir’s shoreline changes with water levels, and its waters form part of one of western Canada’s major river systems. Roads, trails and water access connect the area with the wider mountain country around Golden and Revelstoke.
