"The Khutzeymateen Valley is Canada's only grizzly bear sanctuary and home to one of BC's most important coastal populations of grizzly bears. Located on the northwest coast of BC, it is a beautiful land of dense Sitka spruce rainforest, fjords, and high rugged mountains. The Khutzeymateen River watershed, which drains into the Khutzeymateen Inlet on the Pacific Ocean, and the neighboring drainages of Larch Creek and Cedar Creek make up the 44,300 ha (110,000 acres) of the sanctuary. There are no villages, campsites, or facilities within the sanctuary. In fact, visitors are not encouraged, although controlled viewing in limited numbers is allowed. For those who do visit, it is an experience of a life time. Glaciers tower above beautiful old growth rain forests of Sitka and spruce, and marine mammals such as seals, otters, and whales frequent the area. The river mouth estuary wetlands provide important spawning grounds for many species of salmon upon which the area's many grizzlies depend. Khutzeymateen is a native Tsimshian word meaning 'a confined space for salmon and bears', an apt description of the Khutzeymateen."
