Ever wondered what stories the forest can tell? 🌲✨
Join NWPS and naturalist Roy Jantzen for a guided Wildlife Weekends nature walk in Capilano Park on October 4th.

Roy brings years of experience as a naturalist and educator, and together we’ll slow down, listen closely, and discover the hidden connections that make our local ecosystems thrive. From the smallest forest floor critters to the towering canopy above, every step offers a chance to see nature with new eyes.

This walk is designed for all ages! Families, students, and curious explorers are all welcome. 🍂👨‍👩‍👧‍👦

Be sure to secure yours through the link in our bio. Let’s spend an autumn day reconnecting with the wild right here in North Vancouver!

This is so tragic!

Nakoda isn’t the first grizzly to die due to the railways and highways that flow through and around national park sites; but John Marriott and the team at Exposed Wildlife Conservancy hope she may be the last.
