The Wokkpash Valley has dramatic scenery, including imposing stone erosion pillars, called hoodoos.

[3] The Wokkpash Canyon, below the lake, runs between high cliffs for 5 kilometres (3.1 mi).

[6] Heavy rainfall is common in the region, often lasting for several days, and this can cause flash floods in the creeks.

[7] Wildlife in the region includes grizzly bear, black bears, moose, elk, caribou, mountain goats, stone sheep, wolves, deer, martens, fishers, weasels and wolverines.

[1] The environment is fragile due to the harsh winter conditions and short growing season.
