Golden Ears is one of the largest provincial parks in British Columbia,

encompassing an incredible 55,590 hectares of mostly undeveloped wilderness.

It is also one of, and possibly the most popular park in the province.

 The park was named after the twin peaks of Mount Blanshard,

which shine gold from the setting winter sun.

 Golden Ears lies in the Coast Mountains, north of the mighty Fraser River.

 It extends 55km north through untamed mountain wilderness to an impenetrable barrier of mountain peaks and steep-sided valleys that separate it from Garibaldi Provincial Park.

 Second-growth forests of western hemlock, western red cedar,

and Douglas fir cover much of the landscape.

 At higher elevations, forests give way to alpine meadows and,

 at even higher elevations, permanent snowfields.

Golden Ears Provincial Park in Maple Ridge is a destination with

may possiblities. Once there, you can fan out through the park to

explore on foot, by boat, by bike, or on horseback.

Golden Ears Provincial Park contains one of the largest campgrounds in the province.There are 353 well-spaced vehicle/tent campsites at two locations

inside the park, at Alouette Lake and Gold Creek Campgrounds, as well as wilderness, backcountry or walk-in camping at Alder Flats on the

West Canyon Trail and Panorama Ridge on the Golden Ears trail,

but no facilities are provided. All drive-in sites are nestled beneath

tall stands of sheltering hemlock and fir.

This canopy helps protect campers from the rain that is not uncommon here,

even during summer heat waves.

Hot showers are especially welcome after a day of 'liquid sunshine.

 There are 55 campsites at sandy North Beach.

The open beach in front of the forested sites is a

 great place to watch meteor showers in early August.
