The mapping of streams above is maintained by GEO BC. For the most part the information it contains is correct. However, we have noticed two errors (so far).
Map errors:
1. This map has Nugedzi Lake emptying into Discovery Passage. In fact, it empties into Village Bay on the east side of Quadra Island.
2. Hyacinthe Creek is shown as “McKercher Creek.” The latter name applies to a tributary of Hyacinthe Creek. McKercher Creek flows south into Hyacinthe Creek and runs parallel to Hyacinthe Bay Road. The headwaters of McKercher Creek are in a wetland area below and on the east side of the Mount Seymour ridge.
If you know of other errors in the Province’s mapping of Discovery Islands’ streams, please add it below.
