The Sea to Sky Corridor located between Horseshoe Bay and Whsitler in British Columbia, Canada. It is approximately 130 km long and consits of steep snow capped mountains of the Coastal Range. Thousands of people live in this corridor and are constantly reminded of the environmental threats to this area. Humans have had a negative impact on the environment as there have been oil spills, chemical spills and other industrial pollution released into the corridor. These human threats to the environment have also threated local wildlife including Spotted Owls, Great Blue Herron, the Harbour Porpoise, Grizzly Bears, and the Red-legged Frog. There are also geographical threats as debris flows are common, earthquakes have shaken the corridor, and major active volcanoes surround the Sea to Sky Corridor. |
