Travel thirteen kilometers north of Squamish, and you find yourself in an area marked by two beautiful lakes, second and old growth forests, high ridges and extraordinary views. This spectacular wilderness area is the jewel of the corridor, and is enjoyed by locals and visitors from all over British Columbia and beyond who seek solace and outdoor adventure in a natural setting.
This land was originally set aside for British Columbians to freely enjoy, however it is on the verge of being handed over to Garibaldi at Squamish Inc. The proposed development is massive and would cover an area roughly 1/2 the size of Squamish with 25 ski lifts, 2 golf courses, 98 km's of new roads, a 500,000 sq feet retail centre on Highway 99, and 22,000 bed units (including 5,739 new housing units).
