Trepanier Provincial Park was established on April 18, 2001, to protect important water, biodiversity and recreation values, including the Trepanier Creek drainage. The park includes the Cameron Lake area which is a small fishing lake pleasantly surrounded by mature forest and regenerating stands. The north and west shorelines have been regenerating after a 1970 wildfire and salvage logging.[3]
