Lower Harvey Creek Corrals and Pollock Creek Hitching Rails

Horse Camping Site
This set of 4 corrals and hitching rails at the Lower Harvey Creek Recreational Site were built by the Back Country Horsemen of British Columbia, East Kootenay Chapter, to provide access to the Flathead Valley. No designated trails lead from these sights but there are a good number of trails throughout the region. Some trails may need to be accessed by trailering further along the forestry road. Hitching rails were also erected at Pollock Creek Recreational Site, further up the Flathead Valley. A detailed map of the Flathead Valley is recommended and a good knowledge of back country riding is advisable.
