Indigenous to Northern BC, Fireweed helps rebuild ecosystems after a fire or clear cut. It also has a story of foretelling winter! Fireweed blooms bottom to top – once completely bloomed, the first snowfall of the year is said not to be far. Next to predicting winter, this versatile plant also has uses from teas and salad to fire starter.
Enjoy getting into the water with your kayak, canoe or paddle board on Meziadin Lake, Clements Lake, or even on the Portland Canal. The views are spectacular anywhere you go, so pick a spot and enjoy!
When you're visiting us in the summer months, make sure to stop by Clements Lake or Meziadin Lake for a dip!
