July 9, 2026, View of Columbia River

Here, you can see Begbie Creek run into Columbia River. The views are great, and there's even a picnic table in case you want to relax and enjoy the view a little longer. The river with Mount Cartier in the background is really postcard perfect.

In mid-September we were able to observe salmon coming up the river to spawn.

The lake is very quiet and secluded. No wind is blowing here, but beware of the mosquitoes.
