EagleWatch
The Squamish Environment Society EagleWatch Interpretive Program is a volunteer-driven, community-based educational program that has been educating the public on Squamish's wintering bald eagle population and its importance since 1995.
Eagle Run dike is open for visitors year round. On weekends during EagleWatch season, depending on availability of volunteers, interpreters will be on the dike. Our interpreters will greet visitors and talk about the eagles and the ecosystem on which they depend. We hope to provide dark green EagleWatch vests for these volunteers.
Eagle Run is an accessible site: there is a ramp at the south end. There is a viewing shelter with interpretive panels which describe the eagle life cycle and information about the factors influencing the health of the eagle population. The shelter has picnic tables and there are toilet facilities provided by the District of Squamish. In the winter months, snow on the ramp is cleared by volunteers when possible but access to the site is more limited.
