Thorsen Creek Petroglyphs
Located about eight kilometres west of Hagensborg, the Thorsen Creek Petroglyphs are a collection of 100 First Nations rock carvings and drawings dating back thousands of years. The pictographs were patiently carved out of the bedrock using stone tools, sticks, and even fingers, and represent human and animal life and the power of nature. Some surmise the Easter Islanders may have originated from the area, as the images closely resemble those found on the Polynesian Island.
Address: Bella Coola Highway Hagensborg BC Canada

Norwegian Heritage House
The Bella Coola Valley was settled by Norwegians who found the landscape to be similar to their own - lots of fjords! The Norwegian Heritage House was built in the early 1900s by Andrew Svisdahl, and is maintained in the style of a typical Norwegian home, and offers a picture of life a century ago. |
