About this activity

Steele Narrows Provincial Park is a flat, grassy landscape on the east and west sides of Steele Narrows which is the channel connecting Makwa Lake to the north and Sanderson Bay in the south. Visitors are encouraged to explore and learn about the historic event through the interpretive signage all around the park. 

The Northwest Resistance began in the Spring of 1885. Several battle were fought betwen the Indigenous people and the North West Mounted Place and took place on the Steele Narrows. It was the last battle to be fought on Canadian soil, so this site represents the moment in history. A bridge spans the narrows and on the hill on the west side of the narrows is an HSMBC commemorative cairn. 

As well as walking and exploring the history of the park there are also lots of other activities. The lake makes for excellent fishing, especially in the summer hours and a boat launch area. So you can wander the lake and explore the local wildlife on boat. There's also a fish filleting station if you do manage to catch something and a picnic area too where you can set up camp and spend the day enjoying the scenery.
