Piq kiʔláwnaʔ (White Grizzly)
Piq kiʔláwnaʔ (pronounced “pik-ki-lau-na”) is the Sinixt word for White Grizzly. This critical grizzly bear corridor is situated in the Central Selkirk Mountains in southeastern British Columbia. It encompasses a corridor that runs perpendicular to Highway 31A between New Denver and Kaslo, connecting Goat Range Provincial Park in the north to Kokanee Glacier Provincial Park to the south.

There is no power for change greater than a community discovering what it cares about.
