I’m a protected park where the river meets the fields. You’ll find tall grasses, quiet trails, and lots of birds. I help people learn about nature, and give wildlife space to live. What am I? #RiverRiddles

Founded in 1888, the New Westminster Salmonbellies took their name from the Fraser River’s famous salmon runs. What began as a local lacrosse club became a lasting symbol of the city’s riverfront identity and sporting pride. #BCHistory #NewWest #Salmonbellies #LacrosseHistory

Large logs and woody debris in the Fraser River can last for decades, creating shelter for fish and other aquatic life. Today, this debris is managed to keep waterways safe for navigation and flood control. Did you know this about the Fraser? #funfact #fraserriver

In 1865, crews built a telegraph line along the Fraser River as part of the Collins Overland Telegraph, meant to link North America to Europe. The project was abandoned after the Atlantic cable succeeded, but its trail shaped later routes through B.C. #BCHistory #Telegraph
