About this protected area
Two biogeoclimatic subzones of Interior Cedar Hemlock (ICH) thrive within the lower elevations of this rich environment. One of these, the Interior Cedar Hemlock moist mild (ICHmm), is considered rare and provincially underrepresented.
The higher elevations of this protected area represents the Northern Columbia Mountains ecosection, dominated by the Engelman spruce subalpine fir (ESSF) biogeoclimatic zone.
