Whonnock

Whonnock lies beside the lower Fraser River, near a creek whose name recalls the pink salmon that ascend it. A village of the Kwantlen people stood in this river country, where families traveled to fish, hunt, gather plants, and visit relatives. In 1827 the Hudson's Bay Company established Fort Langley downstream, opening a new trading post within a landscape long connected by Indigenous river routes.

The later city of Vancouver lies nearby.
