About The Eagle Mother
Putting traditional Gitxsan cultural knowledge at the forefront, The Eagle Mother takes a close look at the life cycle of a bald eagle across one year and examines how an ecosystem's animals, people, and seasons are intertwined. This detailed and riveting story is part of an award-winning nonfiction series by Hetxw'ms Gyetxw (Gitxsan) and boldly illustrated by Natasha Donovan (Métis).
About the Lyre Conservation Area
Driving west on Highway 112 from Port Angeles, turn right (north) on Reynolds Road to the trailhead.
The Lyre Conservation Area is located on the traditional and ancestral lands of the Indigenous S’Klallam and Makah people, who have lived on the North Olympic Peninsula since time immemorial and who continue to lead in environmental stewardship.
