A Visit to Bowen’s Wild Coast Nature Refuge Saturday 30 November 1–2:30 PM

 The Wild Coast Nature Refuge on the south coast of Bowen Island was until recently

the Bowen Island Conservancy’s largest conservation land holding. 

It protects rarecoastal bluff ecosystems and a variety of forest types ranging from dry coastal Douglas

fir forest, to damp mixed wood forest.


Join naturalist Will Husby and Operations Lead, Mark Edmonds, on Saturday November 30 from 

1-2:30 pm for a walk along the refuge’s trails and viewpoints to observe first hand the many habitats

Dress for the weather and wear sturdy footwear for walking on rough, sometimes
