  • Duffey Lake Provincial Park
    Duffey Lake Provincial Park M ANAGEMENT LAN P Prepared by: Ministry of Environment, Lands and Parks BC Parks, Garibaldi/Sunshine Coast District Brackendale, B.C. in conjunction with: Ministry of Environment, Terra Firma Environmental Consultants Lands and Parks BC Parks Division Duffey Lake Provincial Park M ANAGEMENT LAN P PARK VISION Duffey Lake Park will continue to be an important part of the parks system on both a regional and provincial level. While the park is relatively small, its key habitat components, unique setting in the transition zone between the coast mountains and the dry interior, and recreational opportunities will make this area a favourite for both destination visitors and the travelling public. Should resource and rural development increase in nearby areas, Duffey Lake Park’s varied habitats for bear, deer, goats, raptors and other wildlife, particularly on the north-west side, will become even more important in providing wildlife the necessary food, cover and shelter to sustain populations in the region. The park will continue to have high water quality, sustained fish populations and together with the wetland habitats, continue to be a high quality aquatic ecosystem. Duffey Lake Park will continue to be important for First Nation traditional use and cultural values. BC Parks, together with the First Nation’s communities, will ensure that significant cultural sites within the park are protected from development impacts and that recreation activities in the park are respectful of the environment and First Nation traditional use. Visitors to the park will be attracted to the low-impact recreational opportunities including day-use and multi-day activities.
