There is no water, services, or firewood here but there are dry toilets. This is bear country, food and food related items must be stored properly.

The ridge behind the Visitors centre leading up to Wilcox Pass provides stunning views of the glaciated peaks, Mount Athabasca, Mount Andromeda, Athabasca Glacier and Snow Dome.
