Nineteenth
century globetrotters converged upon the steaming springs
which bubbled through Radium's rock crevices and transformed
raw wilderness into a mountain mecca. Sheer cliffs, surging
snow-fed streams and lush river basins characterize the area
and provide sanctuary to thriving populations of wolf, coyote,
cougar, lynx, wolverine and grizzly bear.
Radium
offers great hospitality as well as superb restaurants. Accommodation
ranges from modest campsites to Four Diamond resorts.
