Ep. 425: Sunset Lake, BC | RV camping boondocking kayaking travel Canada
Sunset Lake is a beautiful medium-sized forested lake in north-central British Columbia just a few miles off the Yellowhead Highway near the town of Topley. It hosts a BC Recreation Site, which allows people to dry camp, boat, fish, swim and recreate for free on public lands across British Columbia. While RV camping here for a week in late July we explore the nearby town of Houston, British Columbia and its interesting history (including the world's largest fly rod), the area's abundant wildlife and salmon fishery, and get out kayaking on peaceful Sunset Lake.

ABOUT US
Welcome to Grand Adventure, a YouTube channel that focuses on RV-centric outdoor activities including not only of course camping, but also mountain biking, hiking, kayaking, skiing and more, always filmed in stunning 4K.
We're based in Salt Lake City, Utah during the winter months, and invite you to come along as we travel all around North America. My wife Patricia and I, and dog Zoe are avid boondockers, so while you'll occasionally find us in RV parks or even dry campgrounds, we're usually camped in some of the most remote and beautiful spots that you could ever pull a travel trailer into. We've now transitioned from "long-timing" for six months a year, to living and traveling in our RV full-time.
We'll provide beautiful travel videos, as well as some tips and insight on trip planning, and equipping and maintaining your RV to make your next adventure a grand one indeed! So, subscribe to make sure that you catch every episode, and remember...life is nothing but a Grand Adventure!
