Coquitlam River Watershed watercourses

The Lower Coquitlam River watershed, below the Coquitlam Lake Reservoir Dam, includes at least 30 watercourses. The two largest tributaries of the Coquitlam River are Or Creek and Hoy/Scott/Pinnacle Creek. The Coquitlam River watershed is part of the traditional territory of the Kwikwetlem First Nation. The Kwikwetlem First Nation members live on the Coquitlam River and are working hard to restore their culture, traditions and livelihood, all of which depend on a healthy Coquitlam River.
