Close to recreational opportunities along the eastern shoreline of the islands, and the beautiful scenery of the Rose Spit Ecological Reserve, the Blue Danube is ideal for a recreational retreat. Price: $225,000 Size: 160 Acres Area: Haida Gwaii (Queen Charlotte Islands) Contact us: [email protected] or 604-606-7900 Blue Danube The westerly third of the property is well timbered with stands of spectacular & majestic old growth Sitka spruce and cedar in the northwest section of the property. Close to the nearby Rose Spit Ecological Reserve, this area is home to Sitka Blacktail deer which were imported about 80 years ago. It is not unusual to see 30 deer on an evening drive. Small herds of wild cattle, remnants of domestic stock from the days of early settlement, have been seen along the east coast. Sandhill cranes make this area their nesting grounds. LOCATION: The property is approximately 27 miles (45 km) east of Masset, and 6.5 miles (10.5 km) south of Rose Spit within Naikoon Park on the east side of Graham Island on Haida Gwaii (the Queen Charlotte Islands). ACCESS: Haida Gwaii can be reached by plane or ferry with daily flights on Air Canada to Sandspit (on Moresby Island) from Vancouver. There is also air service from Vancouver to Masset with Pacific Coastal Airlines. North Pacific Seaplanes offers air service from Prince Rupert to Masset. BC Ferries services the islands from Prince Rupert with 5 sailings a week in summer and 3 in winter from Prince Rupert to Skidegate on Graham Island. Sailing time is approximately 6 hours. Rental cars are available in Sandspit, Masset and Queen Charlotte City. Access to the property is via the East Beach Trail route through Naikoon Provincial Park, which follows the eastern shoreline of Graham Island on Haida Gwaii from just north of Tlell to Tow Hill near Masset. This remote coastal beach trail is one of the most magnificent trails in Canada. While it is possible to drive along East and North Beaches, any drive must be undertaken at low tide, as sections of the hike along the east coast are bordered by cliffs where the high tide comes right up to shore with no escape routes. Please note, East Beach is a remote wilderness area. There are no shortcuts off East Beach, with limited cell phone coverage. The complete trail takes approximately 4 to 8 days to hike, and can be challenging. Several rivers and streams must be crossed, and distances between the rustic shelters along the hikes can be far. The Cape Fife trail to Tow Hill, while considerably shorter than going around Rose Spit, has numerous marshes and boggy sections to cross, with many fallen trees to go over or under. This is a hike-in trail only. Northern Access: The drive around Rose Spit or hike through Cape Fife Trail is approximately 27- 34 miles (45-55 km). It is approximately 0.83 miles (1.34 km) from the East Beach trail to the northeast corner of the property. Southern Access: The East Beach trail drive/hike from Tlell is approximately 31.8 miles (51.3 km). It is approximately 0.66 miles (1.07 km) from the East Beach trail to the southeast corner of the property.

There are freshwater streams to tempt the avid fly-fisher as well as the majestic Pacific Ocean to lure adventurous fishermen to this unique region. This area is a legend among sports fishermen worldwide with numerous first class fishing lodges attracting hundreds of visitors every year. The avid fishing enthusiast can play in this coastal playground all year round, attracting all five species of Salmon, plus Steelhead, Trout and Halibut. One can anticipate catching spring salmon upwards to 60 lbs while Halibut on the Island have topped 40 lbs. Starting in mid-May, the fish appear on the northern Graham Island coast and follow the herring and needlefish down the coastline. Coho show up in early July, and can be found in abundance by late August. Steelhead are the winter catch on the islands, with the first run showing up in October, and running through to March with the peak months being December and January. The Sangan River is famous for its fly fishing opportunities for Salmon, Cutthroat Trout and Dolly Varden. Fishermen come from all parts of the world to the Tlell and Yakoun Rivers for the Steelhead run. Crabbing and clam digging along North Beach is a popular past time year round on Graham Island. Razor clams and dungeness crabs are abundant, and can be collected to create world class dinners. Dolly Varden have been observed in the stream to the east, between the property and the beach. Marina Dixon Golf Course Contact us: [email protected] or 604-606-7900 Blue Danube Recreation Hiking, biking and walking on the beaches, trails, or in your own backyard provides enjoyment as well as relaxation for outdoor enthusiasts. Exploring the wonders of the rainforest is something the whole family can enjoy year round in this coastal paradise. Haida Gwaii is considered a hidden gem for surfers, with the surfing season running May through October, beginning with the Expression Sessions festival held in late October—November. Surfing rentals and expert advice can be found in Masset. Naikoon Provincial Park, one of two provincial parks on Graham Island, consists of 72,660 ha (179,493 acres) of low wetlands and superb sand dunes, with forests thriving only along river valleys and hills. Naikoon reaches out into Hecate Strait and culminates in Rose Spit, an ecological reserve and excellent spot for watching birds migrating south. Naikoon Park is known for its beautiful scenery, excellent hiking trails and wilderness campsites. One of the area’s attractions is the world famous Delkatla Wildlife Sanctuary. This sanctuary is on the southern route for migratory birds. At least 140 different species have been seen at different times. The once endangered Trumpeter Swan winters here and the Sandhill Crane spends the summer here. The Sanctuary is becoming internationally recognized for its importance as a nesting, feeding and wintering area. Haida Gwaii is well known for its abundant wildlife, especially hundreds of small deer. Seeing fifty to sixty in a day is not uncommon while spotting a herd of elk in remote areas is customary on these islands. North Beach North Beach North Beach Contact us: [email protected] or 604-606-7900 Blue Danube Area Data Haida Gwaii (Queen Charlotte Islands) are a triangular archipelago of some 200 islands, most of them small and uninhabited, covering an area of 9,596 sq. km, running 156 miles (251 km) from south to north, and 52 miles (84 km) west to east. They are separated from the mainland by Hecate Strait, to the north, ranging in width from 31 miles (50 km) to 81 miles (130 km) . The largest islands are Graham to the north, and Moresby to the south. Graham Island is the largest, most accessible, and most populated of Haida Gwaii. The average actual rainfall is higher than the average actual rainfall at Vancouver International Airport, but less than that of North Vancouver. The isolation and climate make the islands distinctly different from the mainland and permit unique subspecies to thrive here. Luxurious rain forests, shell scattered shorelines and sandy beaches provide superlative wilderness adventures. Masset is 25 miles (40 km) north of Port Clements. Masset provides services for a larger rural area with a population near 2,300 including Tow Hill (unincorporated) and Old Massett (IR). Incorporated in 1961, the Village of Masset (Pop. 1000) is the oldest of the islands’ municipalities. Located at the end of Highway 16, amenities include full tourist services, restaurants, accommodations, RV park open year-round and groceries. Boat launching and moorage facilities are available along with Canada’s most northwesterly 18 hole golf course Dixon Entrance Golf and Country Club. Visit Old Masset, only minutes away where local Haida artists display their silver, gold, argillite carvings and jewelry. Road access available to the north end of Naikoon Provincial Park on Tow Hill Road. Tow Hill’s 358 feet (109 meters) basalt cliff is the most prominent landmark on the northeast coast. In the early days, this property was accessed by the “Carr & Whittle” trail, an old wagon trail running from the Tow Hill area in the north to the eastern coast Contact us: [email protected] or 604-606-7900 Blue Danube History The Haida First Nation people have lived on Haida Gwaii for thousands of years. They have been referred to as the Vikings of the Northwest Pacific for their seafaring prowess. They are also well known as skilled artists, importing raw materials from the mainland and transforming them into amazing works that could still be functional.

The routes of precontact inland trails are no longer known well due to the decimation of the local population in the 18th and 19th centuries. Industrial logging is threatening to destroy archaeological evidence of the inland trail network, and therefore this inquiry is timely. The largest and most topographically diverse island, Graham, has been the subject of many archaeological impact assessments that have documented hundreds of archaeological sites, most of them containing culturally modified trees.

    Official charitable partner of BC Parks Your Step-by-Step Guide to Becoming a BC Parks Citizen Scientist bcparksfoundation.ca/inaturalist 1 #iNatBCParks Calling All Citizen Scientists The BC Parks iNaturalist Project is bringing together citizen scientists – British Columbians, visitors and anyone who enjoys B.C.’s provincial parks and protected areas – to document biodiversity in B.C.’s parks using iNaturalist. By using this powerful, trusted mobile app and website to document observations of plants, animals and other organisms, British Columbians and park visitors can contribute to the understanding of life found in B.C.’s parks and protected areas. The BC Parks iNaturalist Project is a collaboration between: What is ? iNaturalist is a mobile phone app and website used around the world to crowdsource observations of plants, animals and other organisms. Users upload photos of observations and iNaturalist’s image recognition software suggests the identity of the organism. A community of keen citizen scientists called “identifiers” then confirm the 2 identity of documented species, helping correct any errors and verify observations to make them research grade. Why is citizen science important? Your observations through the BC Parks iNaturalist Project create an interactive record of your own explorations in B.C.’s parks and protected areas, while helping improve the understanding of the species that live in or travel through our province. You may come across rare species, species at risk and species that aren’t well-studied. Your observations may help track population and distribution changes over time as a result of factors such as climate change. It’s free.

  • Assessing the Cooperative Management Regime in Gwaii Haanas National Park Reserve, National Marine Conservation Area Reserve and Haida Heritage Site
    Master’s Thesis Assessing the cooperative management regime in Gwaii Haanas National Park Reserve, National Marine Conservation Area Reserve and Haida Heritage Site Mr. Jean-Phillip Sargeant (BSc. Honours) Advisors: Dr. Bradley Barr & Mr. Jamie Alley University of Akureyri Faculty of Business and Science University Centre of the Westfjords Master of Resource Management: Coastal and Marine Management Isafjorður, January, 2015 Declaration I hereby confirm that I am the sole author of this thesis and it is a product of my own academic research. __________________________________________ Jean-Phillip Sargeant ii Abstract Gwaii Haanas National Park Reserve, National Marine Conservation Area Reserve and Haida Heritage Site is often seen as a seemingly functional cooperatively managed protected area. Through the Archipelago Management Board (AMB), the Government of Canada and the Council of the Haida Nation manage this culturally and ecologically significant area from “mountain top to deep sea” together. In early 2014, the AMB invoked, for the first time in its history, the dispute resolution clause of its founding agreements. Based on interviews over a 5-month period with key-stakeholders, this study examined the potential repercussions of this action. The complexity that surrounds this cooperative management regime is exacerbated by the history behind each party, a shifting ecosystem it attempts to manage, and continuing disagreement over land-claims. Issues surrounding decision-making authority and governance are central to this thesis. This presents a significant challenge for the AMB, but it also provides opportunity for the AMB to clarify its role and responsibilities in managing Gwaii Haanas National Park Reserve, National Marine Conservation Area Reserve and Haida Heritage Site.
