Habitat
The reason for wanting to be here are the flora, fauma and physical attributes of this property. From the sandy pebbled beach along the entire low bank waterfront with its 30 metre of low tide beach, one can watch the eagles, king fisher, blue herons and oyster catchers feed along the foreshore. Within a stone’s throw, seals and sea lion chase the runs of wild salmon while beneath the water's surface lie a thriving population of year round resident Dungeness crabs and shellfish. Mink and otter are residents of the shoreline.

The uplands consist of mixed second growth of coniferous Douglas Fir, Hemlock and Cedar up to 150 feet in height and huge deciduous Western Maples, Alder and wild nature Dogwood and Arbutus. Besides the one cleared field of several acres, the forest floor of Salal and Oregon grape are home to a healthy deer population.

In the centre of the land is a confined wet land fed by a seasonal creek. An engineer’s report has determined the viability of enhancing the wet land by excavating a pond for water storage, enhanced bird and wildlife habitat and perhaps some recreation.

All of this 37 acres lies completely surrounded by the hundreds of acres of Conservancy Park and Ecological Reserve Land. Only one undeveloped private acreage lies next door with a seasonal cottage. The 600 metre high Mt. Tuam rises immediately behind what is an extraordinarily untouched retreat.
