Early Oliver
Oliver
Oliver is nestled between mature forested mountains and is located at the northern tip of the Sonoran Desert. The landscape consists of a complex array of habitats and the region supports one of the most diverse assemblages of species in Canada, many of which are not found elsewhere in the country.
Archaeological evidence suggests that the ancestors of First Nations people have lived in BC since the last ice age, ten to twelve thousand years ago. The syilx Okanagan Indigenous Peoples are still active in Oliver and the Okanagan region.
