It is sparsely populated and boaters are urged to stay tuned to VHF channel 68. • Our hot springs can be enjoyed year round by visiting the indoor public pool or Harrison Hot Springs Resort, where the pools are sourced by the two hot springs at the south end of the lake. • The Potash spring has a temperature of 40˚C (120˚F) and the Sulphur spring is 65˚C (150˚F). View the source by walking along the west side of the lake. • Harrison Hot Springs is a mecca for musicians and artists, who flock to the area each year for the Harrison Festival of the Arts.

fun on the

water...

Found at the southern end of the 60-km-long, glacier-fed Harrison Lake, the Village is a water lover’s paradise.

Swimming Jump in for a refreshing dip in our glacier-fed lake or the warmer Harrison lagoon.

Paddling For a relatively safe adventure, canoe the Miami River through the Village or head to Hicks Lake. The Harrison River is an incredible outdoor wilderness trip that takes you past stunning scenery. While Harrison Lake can also be paddled, it can be extremely treacherous with high winds and

large waves, and should only be attempted by experienced paddlers.

Boating With the longest lake in southwestern B.C. there is plenty to explore by boat, including coves and beaches, beautiful waterfalls, two islands and the connected Harrison River. With a public boat launch, complete with restroom and sani-station, several marinas and a large public dock, boating here is a breeze.

Bird watching Harrison Lake is a major resting area on the north-south migration of many bird species. In the fall Harrison River is also home to one of the largest congregations of Bald Eagles in North America. Bring your binoculars and start counting.

Salmon & Weaver Creek For a truly amazing sight, visit Weaver Creek spawning channel in October, in Harrison Mills. You will be treated to the beauty of red and green salmon spawning in their thousands.

Quest for the Sasquatch Harrison Hot Springs has been a hotbed of Sasquatch sightings for centuries. The local First Nation band Sts’ailes uses the Sasquatch as its symbol and believe it to be a spiritual being. With local Sasquatch investigators Bill Miller and Thomas Steenberg providing talks and guidance, maybe it’s time to look for yourself. Visit Tourism Harrison’s event calendar for information on the upcoming Sasquatch Days.

It’s hard to know what’s more amazing, seeing the hundreds of thousands of bright red spawning salmon or the thousands of bald eagles.

safety on the

ails...

If you’re the type to be inspired by nature, welcome to paradise. Every hill and valley, every trail and riverside, is waiting to be discovered here. But there are a few things you should know before heading into the great outdoors.

The Harrison Hikers have been meeting weekly for the past 20 years. Each week, they set out on various levels of hikes, from easy walks along dike systems to advanced treks into the woods.

If you go, here are a few words from those wise walkers.

• Never hike alone.

• Travel in groups of at least four.

• Hike at the speed of the slowest member of the group.

• Stay on the trail.

• Resist the temptation to collect trees, plants or flowers.

• Respect wildlife.

• Never approach or feed bears or other wild animals.

• Always pack out what you take in. Don’t bury your trash.

• Keep pets on leash at all times.

• Tell someone where you are going and when you will return.

• Carry a cell phone or VHF radio to communicate, if possible.

To find out more about Harrison Hikers and their upcoming hikes, check in with the Visitor Center.

On bear safety: Most bears will leave if they are aware of a group’s presence so make some noise. Stay in the open as much as possible. Keep children close at hand on trails. If you do meet a bear, don’t run and do keep calm. Make a wide detour and leave the animal a way to escape.

renew your

spirit...

While lapping up all the luxury the Village offers: sand, sun, majestic views — you may want to indulge in a spa treatment for yourself. Letting yourself be pampered will calm your soul, renew your energy and lift your spirit, providing health benefits that last throughout your holidays, and beyond.

If your stay is at a hotel, contact guest services to discuss your needs. Also, check page 30 for a listing of local health and wellness businesses.

We recommend: • A dip in the healing waters at the public pool, or the five pools in the Harrison Hot Springs Resort and Spa for registered guests.

• Take in a yoga class. Spirit Yoga offers some drop-in classes throughout the year.

• Book a side-by-side couples massage for you and your loved one.

• Let the stress of daily life evaporate with a hot stone massage or heated body wrap.

• Visit Harrison Village Mall to shop for books on holistic healing and wellness.

• Pressed for time? Relax with a mini-facial, manicure or pedicure, all designed to make the most of your time.
