You can actually hunt the area as long as you are outside city limits. Go to the City of Kamloops website and check their mapping software and see where the boundary ends.

I haven't hunted there so im not sure but i didn't think the protected grass lands had anything to do with restricting hunting just access like atv and vehical use?
Edit - i see BHB cleared that up.
Re: Lac du Bois bear. Poor form.
well looks loke they dumped it..
they could have picked a better spot and taken the garbage bag...but hey rolling the leftovers out of your truck does not make them a asshat..they probably shot it last light took it home and processed it than ditched it very tired.

The grasslands provincial park is actually open to hunting as per the regs and parks act (once you get out of city limits) however you are not allowed to shoot there for any purpose other than hunting in an open season, in other words no target practice and random shooting stuff. Also, be careful when you do get to the timber as it turns into the McQueen Lake/Isobel Lake no shooting area.

Correct - I have an email from the conservation trust fund that bought some land in the area stating it was cool to hunt there too. Just have to watch the 1km radius around the above mentioned.
Re: Lac du Bois bear. Poor form.
Posting the pictures to Imgur is not the best idea either. I agree that was a poorly chosen dump site. Again, we need to stop drawing negative attention to ourselves. Obviously someone who dumps something like this is not concerned with other peoples opinion. Poor choice but they'll do this again somewhere else, wherever it happens to be convenient at the time.
Re: Lac du Bois bear. Poor form.
No shooting zone in the kamloops. No shooting zone within 1 km of mclean/isobel and some forestry area near there. No shooting in the ecological reserve. All signed.
I posted the pics to imgur because the hbc site wasn't working to upload pictures. Any suggestions for a better host?
