Stemwinder Provincial Park

Stemwinder Provincial Park is a provincial park located just west of Hedley in British Columbia, Canada. The park is 4 hectares (9.9 acres) in size, and provides public access to the Similkameen River. Documented archaeological sites in the form of rock artifacts and depressions of former pit houses

, so-called "pithouses", of the Similkameen (a group of the Okanagan) indicate an early settlement by First Nations and suggest a trading camp here.
