The communities collectively known as the Upper Skeena, The Hazeltons , are located on the unceded traditional territory of the Gitxsan Nation.

The Gitxsan people have inhabited these lands for over 10,000 years and, alongside the Wet'suwet'en Nation to the east, established the landmark Delgamuukw court decision in 1997.

The Upper Skeena encompasses the municipalities of Hazelton and New Hazelton, as well as unincorporated areas like South Hazelton, Two Mile, Suskwa Valley, Miskinish (Cedarvale), Kitwanga Valley, Andimal, and the Kispiox Valley, along with seven Indigenous villages including Gitanyow, Gitwangak, Gitsegukla, Hagwilget, Gitanmaax, Sik-e-dakh, and Anspayaxw.

Many would argue that the natural beauty of this region is unmatched – it certainly plays a vital role in the health and well-being of both Indigenous and non-Indigenous residents.
