    Tips

    October 20, 2025

    This area hosts native art and a concrete deck where you can look down into the Campbell River. There are a few species of salmon all spawning between August to November. The carver of the totem poles is Thomas D. Hunt for the Wei Wai Kai and Wei Wai Kum nations.
