ORIGINAL PURPOSE Protection of calcicolous vegetation, hydrology and geology as well as ecosystems representative of the Interior Douglas-fir zone Physical: The reserve lies mostly on the west-facing slope of a north-south trending ridge, about 300 m east of Columbia Lake and 150 m higher in elevation. Slope exposure is mostly to the west and southwest

Hans Roemer wrote this report after a trip with Chris Kissinger, Ken Millard and Keith Erickson to the wetland portion of the reserve:
Physical: The reserve is near theis near the southern end of the Clrear Range which occupies the “V” between the Thompson and Fraser rivers, north of Lytton. The reserve has two major landforms, a rolling summit above the 1650 m elevation in the north, and steep valley slopes in the south. The predominant aspect is
Physical: The reserve is part of a 2.5 km wide floodplain occurring at the confluence of Nimpkish River and Sebalhall, Yookwa and Kiyu creeks. Surrounding mountains rise to between 1000 and 1500 m above sea level. Soils in the reserve are alluvial Regosols with a loamy sand topsoil up to 1 metre thick overlying fast-draining
Physical: The reserve is on the steep, rugged, southeast slope of Mount Tuam, facing Satellite Channel. These slopes consist of a series of rounded knolls separated by draws. Exposed bedrock is present on the tops of some knolls and along the shoreline, and soils are generally thin. About 1 km of rocky shoreline is included
