A portion of the park, which comprises 44,588 ha. of upland of the northern Kitimat Ranges and 464 ha. of foreshore, incorporates shoreline of the head of Khutzeymateen Inlet.
Visitor use is not encouraged. However, a limited amount of controlled viewing is allowed under permit. The hunting of grizzly bear is prohibited and hunting of other wildlife is restricted to areas above elevation.
