Antlers, Bones, Beaks and Stones (Guided Adult Walk) – 18 years+

Witty’s Lagoon Regional Park (Metchosin) 

We often refer to how First Peoples use EVERYTHING when they successfully hunt and fish. On this guided walk, participants will learn about specific uses for additional resources other than food. Hides for clothing, bones and beaks for tools, just to name a few. We’ll explore how First People’s value nature’s bounty on the coast. Join CRD Regional Parks Indigenous cultural programmer Leslie McGarry as she conveys how even stones contribute to sustaining village life on the coast. 

There is no fee for this program but you must pre-register by November 26 as space is limited. 

Trail description: 800m total distance. A steep wide gravel trail near the main parking lot, leading to a narrow trail with tree roots. The surface for the walk itself is a combination of gravel and compact clay-like soil. One bench on route. Accessible pit toilet available near parking lot and Teaching Shelter.

Please note: We like pets too. However, their presence can be disruptive for some folks. If you plan to attend one of our programs, please leave pets at home. Guide and service animals are, of course, welcome.
