Purpose

To show the locations of known landslide events in the Chilliwack River Watershed (to 2007).

Data source(s)

Fraser Valley Regional District.

Explanation

The Chilliwack River Watershed is a naturally unstable and evolving landscape. Landslide events are common, owing to the watershed’s topography and topology.

Note: the map does not include the most recent landslide events that occurred in Dec 2008/Jan 2009.

Disclaimer

The maps included in the Chilliwack River Watershed Atlas are not intended to be legal documents and it is important that users understand their limitations.  The data has come from many different sources collected at different times and therefore there are variations in the information provided.  In addition, the spatial accuracy of both resource and cadastral information will vary.  The maps are intended as a general guide that will need to be refined and updated.   Users are encouraged to contact the originator of the data in order to obtain up to date or more detailed mapping if required.
