David Thompson Country is a beautiful part of Alberta with mountains, rivers, lakes, waterfalls, campsites, and trails that people from all over the world come to enjoy. Much of David Thompson Country is fairly remote, making for some unique experiences and amazing pictures.

There are many visitors who regularly take time to keep trails and campsites clean so that others can share these experiences for years to come. We are grateful to those who care for David Thompson Country and help keep it clean. As the Clearwater County Sasquatch says, “Welcome to our backyard! Please enjoy it with respect.”

Please take home whatever you brought in. We are seeing people pick up their trash, but then they leave the bags at roadsides, or their camp spots, or around already overflowing garbage bins, attracting wildlife to the location and in the end still creating a huge mess. If you brought it in, please take it home.

The following are Seven Principles of Leave No Trace recreation. Please keep these in mind while enjoying the natural beauty of David Thompson Country.
