While LANDQUEST does not guarantee the information, we believe it to be accurate, but should not be relied upon without verification LISTING NO: 11363 SIZE: Upland Lease: 0.12 hectares Deep Water Lease: 4.19 hectares Beach Lease: 7.74 acres DIRECTIONS: Contact Jason or Jamie to arrange a viewing DESCRIPTION This property borders the Desolation Sound Marine Park’s SW boundary and is situated directly west of the entrance to Grace Harbour Provincial Marine Park. Water access only minutes by boat from the government Wharf in Okeover. The dock for this property is located in a protected bay with deep water making this property particularly attractive as a seasonal outpost for yachts- men owning up to 50ft deep-draft vessels. The 500 sq ft cottage is rustic but could be upgraded for a permanent residence. Two sources of water are available; a seasonal creek which is used to fill a reservoir and a year round spring for which provincial water licence and has been issued to the upland property. The property is owned by The Crown with a renewable licence of occupation. The deep water and beach oyster tenures are prime shellfish growing areas which could produce significant reve- nue for a scaled-up aquaculture venture. Currently the harvestable product vale is estimated to be in the range of $25 K however with the 4 rafts in production, over $100,000 of gross revenue could be realized. The current approved management plan would permit significant expansion. But the buyer who wants a very small scale farm needs only to sell $2,500 of product per year to keep farm status, and could look at contracting out the farming side of things. Water Based Equipment List: High flow trays French tubes Latern nets (3) 24ft x 24ft 'High Flow' rafts & material for 4th raft (1) 24ft x 24ft "High Flow' raft (decked over) 60ft x 5ft mooring dock (ex small craft harbour dock) 35ft heavy duty aluminum ramp/walkway 24ft aluminum skiff c/w outboard motor Various shellfish farming bits and pieces Land Based Equipment List: Work shed Tent platform Cabin with deck, wood stove, shower, propane Paloma 'on demand' hot water. 2 water sources, including water licence for a year round creek 10 min walk from cabin to The Sunshine Coast Trail TREVENEN BAY - MALASPINA INLET Product / Current Stock: Pacific Oysters approximately 30,000dz Manila Clams 5,000-7,000 lbs. Farm gate value $50,000 HISTORY A short distance from Okeover you will find the historic community of Lund, established in 1899. Lund was named after a town in Sweden by the Thulin Brothers who started to build the hotel, which is still in use today. Recently the hotel has changed ownership and has recently seen a major renovation. For most of the early years Lund served as a port for fisherman. Today Lund thrives on its attraction from tourists seeking the neighbouring Gulf Islands and marine park. RECREATION Summer activities range from hiking or biking into Theodosia Valley, swimming and beach combing, boating and observ- ing loons, herons, bald eagles and marbled murrelets in Oke- over, Lancelot & Theodosia Inlet. Okeover Inlet One of the best-kept secrets of Desolation Sound is Okeover Arm. Situated at the start of Desolation Sound, the warm waters of Okeover inlet are a haven for wilderness kayaking, canoeing and sailing. These inviting waters are also home to a large mariculture industry, in par- ticular oysters and clams. Okeover Arm Provincial Park is located on Okeover Arm, a long neck of water along the east side of the Malaspina Peninsula on the northern Sunshine Coast. Visitors and paddlers will enjoy the 4-hectare park's waterfront setting and small campground. There are hiking trails that wind through lightly forested uplands, and outdoor enthusiasts can enjoy swimming, fishing, diving and boating. The park is the choice of paddlers intent on exploring Desolation Sound Marine Provincial Park, BC's largest marine park, and is also an ideal launching spot for kayakers who plan to paddle the sheltered waters of the Malaspina Inlet. Divers can explore the Okeover Caves on the east side of Okeover Arm. The sheer rock wall de- scends straight down; there are two caves, the deeper is at 27 to 30 metres. There are facilities for divers in Lund that include dive-kayak rentals, charters and air fills. OYSTER LEASE/OCEANFRONT CABIN This park offers 14 vehicle accessible campsites and 4 tent only sites on a first-come, first-served basis - campsite reservations are not accepted. The 14 vehicle accessible sites are open sea- sonally and the 4 tent only sites are open all year. Except in the busiest summer months, you'll probably have your choice of any of the walk-in sites in the forest beside Okeover Arm. Part of the campsite and day use area is situated on a traditional Sliammon Fist Nations archeo- logical site. There are interpretive signs explaining the significant aspects of the site. Although this park does not have a boat launch, there is a boat launch immediately adjacent to the park. Please note that the boat launch is only recommended for use during high tides and with 4 wheel drive vehicle. Fishing The fishing in the surrounding is excellent and there are many local charter fishing boats eager to prove it. Not interested in fishing? Head out on the boat for a day trip and explore the Copeland Islands Provincial Marine Park or the spectacular sights of world famous Desolation Sound Pro- vincial Marine Park. Kayaking Kayaking in the area is very rewarding, especially around the bays and islets of the nearby Cope- land Islands Provincial Marine Park, a group of pristine islands situated north of the Lund Har- bour. The sea life is abundant with seals, fish, sea stars, water fowl and the occasional whale. Watch for bald eagles too. Or snorkel, swim or sunbathe from the sandy shores of tropical Savary Island which is just min- utes away by water taxi. The unpaved roadways, winding trails and friendly islanders make it a relaxing place to bike or hike. Trails The nearby Sunshine Coast Trail offers great scenic hikes. It begins at Sarah Point, near the mouth of Okeover Inlet and ends in Saltery Bay at the southern end of the Malaspina Peninsula. Accessible from several points along the route, hikers can plan short day hikes, overnight hikes or longer multi-day hikes. It is strongly suggested that you obtain information about the trail (ie: water, private property, wildlife, etc) before hiking any sections. Read Island Provincial Park is located on the southern tip of Read Island, immediately west of the Rendezvous Islands. The 639-hectare park encompasses old-growth forest, bog, fertile low- land and productive second growth forest. Wildlife is abundant in the park, and camping, hiking, kayaking and swimming at Rosen Lake are amongst the recreational opportunities. Access to this remote and wilderness area is by boat and kayak from Heriot Bay on Quadra Island. The shoreline of Read Island is mostly steep and rocky, but there are a few locations for landing small boats and hauling kayaks out. There are no facilities available in the park. Desolation Sound Marine Park possesses a magical magnetism that draws boaters and paddlers from distant shores. Popular anchorages include Prideaux Haven, Tenedos Bay, and Grace Har- bour, and plenty of isolated bays and campsites can be found throughout Desolation Sound's more than 37 miles (60 km) of coastline.

  • Marine Recreation in the Desolation Sound Region of British Columbia
    MARINE RECREATION IN THE DESOLATION SOUND REGION OF BRITISH COLUMBIA by William Harold Wolferstan B.Sc., University of British Columbia, 1964 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS in the Department of Geography @ WILLIAM HAROLD WOLFERSTAN 1971 SIMON FRASER UNIVERSITY December, 1971 Name : William Harold Wolf erstan Degree : Master of Arts Title of Thesis : Marine Recreation in the Desolation Sound Area of British Columbia Examining Committee : Chairman : Mar tin C . Kellman Frank F . Cunningham1 Senior Supervisor Robert Ahrens Director, Parks Planning Branch Department of Recreation and Conservation, British .Columbia ABSTRACT The increase of recreation boating along the British Columbia coast is straining the relationship between the boater and his environment. This thesis describes the nature of this increase, incorporating those qualities of the marine environment which either contribute to or detract from the recreational boating experience. A questionnaire was used to determine the interests and activities of boaters in the Desolation Sound region. From the responses, two major dichotomies became apparent: the relationship between the most frequented areas to those considered the most attractive and the desire for natural wilderness environments as opposed to artificial, service- facility ones. This thesis will also show that the most valued areas are those F- which are the least disturbed. Consequently, future planning must protect the natural environment. Any development, that fails to consider the long term interests of the boater and other resource users, should be curtailed in those areas of greatest recreation value. iii EASY WILDERNESS . Many of us wish we could do it, this 'retreat to nature'.

Two expeditions, one led by Captain Vancouver and the other led by Comandante Galiano, arrived at Kinghorn Island in Desolation Sound from the south on June 25, 1792. Their mission was to survey the mainland coast for a passage to the east—a northwest passage. At this stage of their work, they had no idea what lay before them as the insularity of Vancouver Island had yet to be established by Europeans. The following day, all four vessels moved up the Lewis Channel and found a better anchorage in the Teakerne Arm. For seventeen days, small-boat expeditions set out from this safe anchorage to explore the Homfray Channel, Toba Inlet, Pryce Channel, Bute Inlet, and the narrow passages leading westward through which the sea flowed back and forth with astounding velocity.

    Northern Coast Salish Marine Resource Management by Megan Elizabeth Caldwell A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Anthropology University of Alberta © Megan Elizabeth Caldwell, 2015 Abstract This dissertation explores the traditional marine management systems of the Northern Coast Salish in British Columbia, Canada. Combining traditional knowledge with archaeological data, this dissertation seeks to understand the long-term history of ancestral Northern Coast Salish marine resource use and management. The substantive chapters present, respectively: a review of traditional marine management systems of the Northwest Coast; a typology of intertidal marine management features in Northern Coast Salish territory; and, an evaluation of ancestral Northern Coast Salish marine resource management by integrating data from intertidal features and zooarchaeological remains using a series of nested analytical scales. Overall, this dissertation shows that the ancestral Northern Coast Salish had an expansive, integrated system of marine management that allowed for sustained use of a key suite of taxa over several millennia. ii Preface The research presented in this dissertation was undertaken as part of the Tla’amin-Simon Fraser University Archaeology and Heritage Stewardship project led by Dr. Dana Lepofsky (Department of Archaeology, SFU) and Dr. John Welch (Department of Archaeology and School for Resource and Environmental Management, SFU), with Michelle Washington as the main liaison with Tla’amin First Nation. The fieldwork to gather data for this dissertation could not have been possible without the contributions of Lepofsky, Welch, and Washington, as well as additional members of the research team: Nyra Chalmer, Julia Jackley, Sarah Johnson, Bob Mui, Chris Springer, and Craig Turner.

  • An Archaeological Examination of House Architecture and Territoriality in the Salish Sea Region Over Five Millennia

Sobel External Examiner Professor Department of Sociology and Anthropology Missouri State University Date Defended/Approved: September 26, 2018 ii Abstract Archaeological studies of territory, tenure, and territoriality seek to understand how past claims and access to land and resources were expressed across landscapes and through time. The foci of such studies include the spatial and temporal patterning of settlements, dwellings, conspicuous burials, monumental constructions, rock art, defensive features, and resources. In line with this research, this dissertation integrates ethnohistoric and archaeological data in three case studies that investigate the roles of house forms, the distribution of local and nonlocal obsidian, and the positioning of defensive networks in communicating territorial and tenurial interests among the ancestral Coast Salish of southwestern British Columbia and northwestern Washington state.

  • Five Easy Pieces on the Strait of Georgia – Reflections on the Historical Geography of the North Salish Sea
    FIVE EASY PIECES ON THE STRAIT OF GEORGIA – REFLECTIONS ON THE HISTORICAL GEOGRAPHY OF THE NORTH SALISH SEA by HOWARD MACDONALD STEWART B.A., Simon Fraser University, 1975 M.Sc., York University, 1980 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE AND POSTDOCTORAL STUDIES (Geography) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) October 2014 © Howard Macdonald Stewart, 2014 Abstract This study presents five parallel, interwoven histories of evolving relations between humans and the rest of nature around the Strait of Georgia or North Salish Sea between the 1850s and the 1980s. Together they comprise a complex but coherent portrait of Canada’s most heavily populated coastal zone. Home to about 10% of Canada’s contemporary population, the region defined by this inland sea has been greatly influenced by its relations with the Strait, which is itself the focus of a number of escalating struggles between stakeholders. This study was motivated by a conviction that understanding this region and the sea at the centre of it, the struggles and their stakeholders, requires understanding of at least these five key elements of the Strait’s modern history. Drawing on a range of archival and secondary sources, the study depicts the Strait in relation to human movement, the Strait as a locus for colonial dispossession of indigenous people, the Strait as a multi-faceted resource mine, the Strait as a valuable waste dump and the Strait as a place for recreation / re-creation. Each of these five dimensions of the Strait’s history was most prominent at a different point in the overall period considered and constantly changing relations among the five narratives are an important focus of the analysis.

  • Regional Parks and Greenspace Plan 2010
    POWELL RIVER REGIONAL DISTRICT November 18, 2010 REGIONAL DISTRICT PARKS AND GREENSPACE PLAN Submitted to: Powell River Regional District 5776 Marine Avenue Powell River B.C. V8A 2M4 Submitted by: HB Lanarc Consultants Ltd. 604-688-9769 Suite 200, 420 Hastings Street West Vancouver, BC V6B 1L1 In Partnership with: Alof!i Consultancy Madrone Environmental Services Ltd. A Note to Readers This “Regional District Parks and Greenspace Plan” is the result of an extended planning process that involved the general public, recreation stakeholders, business interests, and government agencies. It reflects the value residents place on the Region’s many beautiful places and significant natural features, including our coastline, rivers, lakes and back country. The Plan represents an ambitious and long term vision, and it includes many recommendations for achieving this vision. These recommendations are advisory and their inclusion in the Plan does not obligate or guarantee the implementation of any particular one. As the next step, the Regional Board will develop an implementation strategy. This strategy will select from among all the recommendations those that are most important to the overall vision and that are achievable, given financial and other constraints, and will determine a schedule for executing them. On its own, the Regional District has limited resources available and, in some instances, limited authority to act on the Plan recommendations; therefore, the cooperation and participation of various government agencies, private interests and community volunteers is vital to the Plan’s implementation. The Regional District will work to build partnerships that will generate this cooperation as it is through these partnerships that we, as a unified community, will ultimately convert the Plan recommendations into reality.
