The Khutzeymateen valley is uninhabited by humans, with no roads, trails, campsites or signs of intrusion by civilization. An ancient trilogy of grizzly bears, spawning salmon and Sitka trees are all that inhabit this corner of the world. Three main ecosystems converge here that include, mountain hemlock, costal western hemlock and alpine tundra. This kind of biodiversity in overlapping patterns helps maintain and preserve an environment that attracts wildlife and all the other components that makes this a special place. There are a few groups that are active in saving this corner of the world, and if you do visit, please consider a donation to help in their efforts. They include BC Space for Nature, Valhalla Society, and Raincoast Conservation Society. Thank you to BC Space for Nature for granting permission to use the map for your viewing pleasure.
