Lexw Qwò:m Park
Lexw Qwò:m (Luwh-KWOM) is the traditional name for the area and means “always lots of moss” in Halq’eméylem, the language of the Sto:lo Coast Salish People. Day use trails within the park incorporate the old water intake structures as trail bridges. Visitors will be able to read historical information about how the intakes were used by Elk Creek Waterworks. The park features a day use picnic area, parking lot and a trail network that connects to the Community Forest.
