This area has been the scene of immense changes in the last two hundred years, and the pace of change is accelerating. This guide covers Boundary Bay and its watershed, including Delta, Surrey, White Rock, Langley and Richmond in British Columbia, and Blane, Point Roberts and the Drayton Harbor watershed in Washington State.
