Description
The Harrison Mills area, encompassing the Chehalis Flats alluvial fan which spread out into the Harrison River, just north of the confluence with the Fraser River, has steadily received more and more human attention. From the establishment of the Chehalis village many thousands of years ago, to the establishment of Kilby to serve the gold rush to hosting pioneering logging and farming families, to the more recent establishment of camping facilities and several permanent housing subdivisions along the shorelines, this area appeals to people. The navigable waters of the Harrison River have linked these people and been their lifeline to civilization. These waters have supported North America’s largest populations of several of the salmon species, one of the world’s greatest concentrations of the sturgeon and a native and sports fishery unexcelled anywhere.
