    Description

    We are a 3200 acre cattle ranch in north central British Columbia. We have 6 children from the ages of 16-6. We live in a rural area, unique with ferry crossing and have 400 head of cattle. We are members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints and attend services weekly.

    This beautiful location is full of opportunities to help in the house, garden, yard, and to spend days fishing, hiking, swimming, kayaking and exploring the beauty all around.
