Description
English: View across Bella Coola River from a point about two miles above its mouth. There was formerly a Bella Coola fish dam at this point. There is a large glacier up the valley to the right, and slightly over a mile from Bella Coola River up the stream from this glacier which empties into the river about a mile above here is the largest group of petroglyphs in Canada. The land on the lower part of the mountain in the centre, to the extent of eighty acres, was offered to the Parks Branch, of the Department of the Interior, by Constable Islip, Provincial Policeman at Bella Coola, in 1924, if accepted within two years and used as a portion of a Dominion Park. The next eighty west of it is B.C. Crown Land, and the petroglyphs are on the rock west of that, but extend southward on to the next lot.
