Craig Headwaters Protected Area lies in northwestern British Columbia along the Craig River and has had park status since 2001 as an area of protection for a high-latitude example of the Coastal Western Hemlock zone containing uncommon plant communities.[1] Giant specimens of Sitka spruce, up to 60 meters tall, are present.[1] The area also has some of the northernmost western red cedar in British Columbia.[2]
