One of my favorite spots to walk or drive over. From the bridge, you get to see so much of the majesty of the area. From this vantage point, you see the mighty Rouche de Boule (Stekyoden) overlooking New Hazelton, and then Nine Mile Mountain on the opposite side. The best part by far is looking down at the Bulkley River underneath. In the summer, you might be able to catch some kayakers going down the canyon and around the bend. I recommend walking across this bridge, it is just thrilling to stand on top of a historial site.

My husband and I have visited Stewart and Hyder many times over the years and we are always happy to arrive at Bear Glacier. It marks the start of our adventure. We marvel at the waterfalls--really good at certain times of the year. And then there is Bear Glacier welcoming you to the other glaciers farther on like Salmon Glacier and Berendon Glacier. Although we are saddened by the shrinking of the glacier, nevertheless it is still awesome and we find ourselves stopping at almost every pullout to get just another view. Enjoy.
5. Kleanza Creek Provincial Park

I love this little creekside campsites and park at Kleanza Creek. The emerald green waters of Kleanza Creek flows out of a small canyon at the park and rushes along the campsites and picnic area to the Skeena River a kilometre away beyond Highway 16. The creek has spawning salmon in it during summer months. There is a nice switchback walk that is kid friendly, to the top of the canyon walls and down the other side to the roaring creek above the canyon. There is a rough trail further on up the creek through the forest. The views of Kleanza Creek and surrounding forests and mountains are quite scenic. This is a great park to take young kids to play in the cold water in summer and learn to scramble on the granite rocks. It is an awesome place to snowshoe or cross-country ski into during the winter when the creek has cool ice and snow formations. It takes about half an hour to ski in and a half hour out through the old growth forest. The campsites are so beautiful where you can back unto the creekbankand listen to the roaring waters of Kleanza. The picnic tables along a nice green grassy area above the creek are a very enjoyable place to have a lunch or supper. There are not too many campsites here which makes it not too busy. The tall trees throughout the park provide a lot of shade in the campsites. There is an on-site attendant here at all times. One can travel the 26 kms. to Kleanza Lake on a logging road at the entrance. This road also takes you to some mountain trails. Kleanza Creek is a very worthwhile area to camp ,visit or have a picnic. The air here is very fresh along the creek and the aromatic scents of evergreens fill the air. This area is also good for huckleberry picking in season. Kleanza Creek Park is a must place to come and veg and take in the scenery, smells, sounds of nature and watch water dippers, kingfishers , eagles and other wildlife.

We stayed two nights in the very friendly and scenic town of Stewart BC. The boardwalk is a perfect place to view the surrounding mountains and estuary below. Must do when in Stewart.

I was so impressed with the amount of Jade in the store, and how friendly and helpful the staff was. My hubby was elated when they asked him if he wanted a coffee, and he loved it, as he is very picky. I myself was interested in the stocked shelves, and of course, had to buy gifts. We would recommend stopping here and stretch your legs into this store. This is a Gem you shouldn't pass by. S&CBuckley
