Located in the North Okanagan Highlands, Myra-Bellevue Provincial Park boasts the dramatic escarpment of Little White Mountain, the scenic Myra Canyon, and the historic Kettle Valley Railway. With its awe-inspiring tunnels and trestles, including the picturesque Bellevue Trestle, the KVR has quickly become a world-famous hiking and cycling route.

These cozy, bulky mittens are knit with a thumb gusset and include options for two sizes.
