Mystic Spring"
THE CONFUSING LEGEND OF THE "MYSTIC SPRING" by Grant Keddie, Royal B.C. Museum, 2003 In the municipality of Oak Bay, above the western side of Cadboro Bay, part of the uplands drain through a deep ravine now referred to as Mystic Vale. The creek that flows through this vale, or valley, has never been given a legal name but is referred to locally as Mystic Creek or Hobbs Creek. Mystic Creek flows north of Vista Bay Road and between Bermuda Street and Killarney road to the north of Cadboro Bay road. South of Cadboro Bay road the creek flows on the east side of Killarney road. Recently its south end was diverted east to Sinclair road. Mystic Vale is located at the far left of this photograph taken in the early 1900s. RBCM A-02978. To the west of Killarney road is Mystic Lane. Artificial duck ponds have been created above and below this lane. The area between Killarney road and the hill slope below Hibbens Close receives its surface and underground water supply from some of the uplands west of Mystic vale. House and yard construction projects in the 1930's and especially the development of the Cadboro Bay Auto court property in the 1940's disrupted the flow and configuration of two small creeks in this area. Three large ponds were dug in the 1940's to contain the flow of one of the creeks. Later, landfill and house construction altered this area substantially. The present artificial duck pond along Waring road is a remnant of one of these earlier water control ponds. -

Gordon Head Is Bordered on the North and East by Haro Strait, on the West by Blenkinsop Valley and Mount Douglas, and on the South by Mckenzie Avenue
Geoffrey Vantreight with First Nations workers on the Vantreight strawberry farm, 1910 (1984-012-006) Gordon Head is bordered on the north and east by Haro Strait, on the west by Blenkinsop Valley and Mount Douglas, and on the south by McKenzie Avenue. It was a heavily forested wilderness when it was first settled by farmers, starting with James Tod (Todd) in 1852. By the 1870s, thirteen men, including Charles Dodd, Michael Finnerty, and John Work, owned all of the land identified as Gordon Head. The area became famous for its strawberries, which sold for high prices until 1914 when the dropping value of the crop led to the formation of the Saanich Fruit Growers’ Association. By 1945 the strawberry crop was declining in importance and daffodils became an important cash crop. Starting in 1902, Arbutus Cove was favoured as an area of summer homes for prominent Victoria-area families. In 1921, city water service was brought to Gordon Head leading to a proliferation of greenhouses and vegetable growers. Since the 1950s, the area has gradually been developed with single-family housing, facilitated through the introduction of sewers in the late 1960s. Produced by Saanich Archives, December 2020 Saanich Official Community Plan 2008, Map 22 Local Areas The District of Saanich lies within the traditional territories of the Ləkʷəŋən̓ and SENĆOŦEN speaking peoples. Evidence of First Nations settlement in the area now called Saanich dates back over 4,000 years. The Ləkʷəŋən̓ peoples are made up of two nations, the Songhees and Esquimalt Nations and the W̱ SÁNEĆ peoples are made up of five nations, W̱ JOȽEȽP (Tsartlip), BOḰEĆEN (Pauquachin), SȾÁUTW̱ (Tsawout), W̱ SIḴEM (Tseycum) and MÁLEXEȽ (Malahat) Nations.
