  • I Applied to Register a Campsite in Emperor Ridge Campground at the Cache of the Motor Village, Because the Campground Was Managed by the Motor Village
    Mount Robson EL 3954 m Motor Village Emperor Ridge Caqmpground Visitor Information Center ? I applied to register a campsite in Emperor Ridge Campground at the Cache of the Motor Village, because the campground was managed by the Motor Village. They said I could pitch a tent at any unoccupied site. The fee was collected at each site by the clerk in charge in the evening. In USA, there are rarely private campgrounds in the public land. I thought facilities of the Motor Ｖillage must have been settled before the Robson Provincial Park was established. (1151) Mount Robson EL 3954m N (Visitor Information Center and its Vicinity th July 15 (Sunday) I got up at six and went to the Viewpoint Lookout to take photographs of Mount Robson in the early morning atmosphere, but in vain.. The upper the mountain was covered with clouds. Mount Robson is supposed to reveal its whole shape one or two days a week. I had continental breakfast at my campsite. I made up my mind to have an “ambling in the nature” along the trail to Kinney and Berg Lakes. It was a few minute drive from Whitehorn the Emperor Ridge Campground Mt.Robson to Berg Lake Trail head parking. From Trailhead Parking the trail My Ambling in the Nature ascended gradually along the right bank of the Robson River to Kimmey Lake, and from Trailhead Parking Kinney Lake the trail became much steeper. As I felt so weary that, I gave up ascending further than Whitehorn campground. (1152) While I was walking on the trail, thick clouds concealed the top of Mount Robson.
