180 air miles north of Vancouver, BC, lies Chilko Lake and River. Nestled within the Pacific Coast Mountains, this fifty mile turquoise blue lake is surrounded by ancient glaciers and raw un-touched beauty. Fed by glacial streams and clean cold water, the Chilko River flows northeast and joins the mighty Fraser River. Chilko is a rare gem. Few people have discovered it, but once discovered, it is rarely forgotten. There are few areas in the world as beautiful to explore.
“While I would come back for the fishing alone, I must add that the friendly and attentive staff, the great meals, the beautiful lodge, and the spectacular setting left me wondering – does it get any better?” John Ovcacik and Suzanne Rochford
