Camosun Bog | xʷməm̓qʷe:m
Camosun Bog is a rare 3,000-year-old sphagnum bog located within Pacific Spirit Park on Vancouver's west side, on the unceded territory of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam) Nation. The site features a 300-metre nature boardwalk with interpretive signage covering the bog's ecology, Indigenous history, and ongoing restoration work by the volunteer Camosun Bog Restoration Group. Touring cyclists can lock up and walk through a genuinely unusual urban wilderness featuring carnivorous sundews, cloudberry, and other subarctic plant species.
This place is in the traditional territory of the Hul’qumi’num Treaty Group, S’ólh Téméxw (Stó:lō), səl̓ilwətaɁɬ təməxʷ (Tsleil-Waututh), Stz’uminus, šxʷməθkʷəy̓əmaɁɬ təməxʷ (Musqueam), and Cayuse, Umatilla and Walla Walla.
