Roderick Haig Brown Park

To Honour a Conservationist

Roderick Haig-Brown Provincial Park is named after the great British Columbian writer, conservationist and fly-fisher. Haig-Brown served as a member of the International Pacific Salmon Commission and on the boards of many conservation organizations, including the Nature Trust of B.C.

Within these organizations Haig-Brown worked for the protection of wild fish stocks and the rivers they inhabit. As a result of his work and the contributions of many others, this park was created, and its world-famous run of sockeye salmon preserved.
