*** About Howe Sound: Howe Sound is a majestic fjord located just northwest of Vancouver, British Columbia. Known for its dramatic scenery, the fjord is surrounded by steeply rising mountains and is dotted with several islands, making it a popular destination for boating, hiking, and wildlife observation. The sound has a rich history, particularly with the indigenous Squamish people, who have inhabited the area for thousands of years. Their deep connection with the land is evident in their stewardship and cultural practices, which continue to influence the area profoundly. Howe Sound is also noted for its recovery and conservation efforts, particularly in bringing back marine and terrestrial ecosystems that were once in decline.
