Finger-Tatuk
Provincial Park features a beautiful series of lakes and is a regionally
significant recreational destination. The park surrounds Finger and
Tatuk Lakes and extends south to include the smaller Turff, Vance, Cory,
Bodley, and Harp Lakes south of the Tatuk Hills.
Abundant
populations of Rainbow Trout and Kokanee are the main attraction for
anglers in the area. Guided and resident hunting and boating are also
popular pursuits. The diverse and high-value habitat in the park provides
for a range of animal species including grizzly and black bear, ungulates,
small fur-bearers, waterfowl, shore-birds, and eagles.
