About
Located in the Purcell Mountains of southeast British Columbia, Bugaboo Park draws climbers from around the world to its airy, glacier-sculpted granite spires. With many peaks over 3,000 m, the Bugaboos offer awe-inspiring mountain and glacier terrain.
The Conrad Kain Hut is maintained by BC Parks and the Alpine Club of Canada. This basecamp for climbers operates to reduce visitor impacts on the fragile timberline area below Snowpatch Spire.
Road access to the park is via straightforward route-finding along rough resource roads (high clearance is recommended). This park is suitable only for experienced, well-equipped climbers and hikers. Lodging type(s) on file: Cabins and huts.
