In an effort to accommodate those impacted by the closure, BC Parks is advising affected campers and is offering refunds for fees already paid.

Campers are also being assisted in making alternate arrangements at nearby provincial parks or other private campsites.

Kamloops-North Thompson MLA Peter Milobar is not pleased with the closure.

“I think it’s disappointing for all those families that have holidays planned, reservations booked well in advance that this has now transpired. I have very little faith that the Environment Minister (George Heyman) will bother to endeavour to try to intercede in any way, shape or form given it’s blocking the pipeline route of a project he’s certainly not in favour of.”
