Area A combines rugged inlet country with an exceptionally sparse settlement pattern in a way that reflects its coastal position beneath British Columbia’s Coast Mountains. Near the mainland shore north of Vancouver Island, this area is shaped by forested slopes, tidal passages and long distances between services; marine travel remains important for reaching many coastal communities. The surrounding coast lies within the traditional territories of Kwakwaka'wakw peoples, whose communities and cultural traditions remain integral to the region.
