B.C. Safaris – remote wilderness with reasonable access. Dease Lake is the jumping off point for all of our trips. Located on Highway 37 ­ the Cassiar Highway  Dease is about a 20 hour drive from Seattle on good hard surfaced highway.

There are scheduled flights 3 times a week from Vancouver via Smithers, B.C. with Northern Thunderbird Air. Our main lodge at Turnagain Lake is just a 25 minute flight from Dease Lake by floatplane.

To minimize our guests travel time we have 2 charter flights arranged each change day. A flight arrives at Turnagain Lake in the morning and takes departing guests to Dease Lake so that they may catch the flight back to Vancouver on the same day. Then another charter flight brings in arriving guests so they are ready to start their trip the following morning.

Our guiding area has the mighty Stikine River as its southern boundary starting on the west at Beggarly Creek and continuing eastward to the Pitman River and up the Pitman about 20 miles. The Eagle River forms part of the northern boundary and Tanzilla Butte is generally the northwest corner post. King Mountain at just under 8000 feet, is our highest peak. For 1:250,000 maps of the area you will need Cry Lake - 104i and Stikine River 104h.
