NEYS PROVINCIAL PARK PLAN PRESERVES NATURAL SETTING More than 90 per cent of Neys Provincial Park on Lake Superior's northern shoreline will be preserved as a wilder ness zone, according to a master plan for the park released by Natural Resources Minister Frank S, Miller. "Neys Provincial Park is now classified as a natural. environment park with the major portion of it zoned as wilder- ness," Mr. Miller said. "It offers a'wide variety of outstand- ing recreational opportunities in a unique setting that char acterizes the north shore of Lake Superior", Existing development is Timited to the park periphery where car-camping and day-use facilities are available "to local residents and tourists. To further preserve the en- vironment, future development will be restricted to a system of hiking trails and walk-in campsites. The master plan also calls for upgrading of the park's visitor services program and development of a visitor service centre. The 3,260 hectare (8 052-acre) provincial park is 25 kilometres (15 miles) west of Marathon and one mile off Highway 17. |t occupies the rugged Coldwater Peninsula which juts into Lake Superior from the north shore. The park is visited annually by 30,000 area residents and tourists and provides 149 camping sites in three areas. Copies of the master plan are available for $2.00 from the Ontario Government Bookstore, 880 Bay St., Toronto, Ontario, and the Terrace Bay and Thunder Bay District Offices of the Ministry of Natural Resources.
