slide suddenly swept over the fertile lands of the eastern Fraser
Valley. This rock fall pushed north across the Fraser River and

for crop farming, but early settlers found it ideal for raising

the charm of the location and thousands of wild Geraniums, Columbine,
Roses and Bleeding Hearts added a finishing touch to this magnificent
setting. Don't miss their virtual tour.
