Kidoo, from your description, the place may have been the Rocky Mountain Lodge on Muncho Lake. It is sometimes open and other times closed.
Same place but open this trip. Diesel by the garage door and unleaded to the right. Café to the far right door.
On up the highway is the much newer Northern Rockies Lodge. It has a large log main building and while it sell fuel, meals, it mainly caters to European fisherman. The lodge owner has a float plane and remote cabins that they use. It was formerly called the Highland Glen Lodge, or something like that. Expensive fuel here as well.
Northern Rockies Lodge and pumps. Also has a campground.
More of a wider shot of the lodge.
Here is a shot of Muncho looking south from the north end. The buildings in the photo, are probably those of J &H Lodge. You have to pay for this type of scenery, I guess, so high fuel prices. LOL
on farther north is the old Muncho Lake Lodge. The building in this photo has been torn down by the new owners and they removed the fuel pumps as well. They now operate just the campground, with new shower buildings etc. Last trip up I stopped to visit with them and they said the cost to buy, store, buy new pumps, was just more than they could justify to sell fuel.
Just next door to the above is the shut down, about 2008, give or take, J & H Wilderness Lodge. It used to be a favorite with the caravans, for both camping and fuel. Still for sale as far as I know. It was formerly known as Denny's Fish Camp Lodge, or close to that with guides and boats available. Muncho Lake has outstanding fishing available.
