Hanna-Tintina Conservancy lies near Meziadin Junction in northwest British Columbia, about 143 kilometres northwest of Kitwanga Junction and 62.5 kilometres northeast of Stewart. BC Parks says it includes nearly the entire watersheds of Hanna and Tintina Creeks, with steep timbered hillsides, alpine slopes, and extensive wetlands.
The conservancy is accessed by Highways 37 and 37A.
Hanna-Tintina Conservancy is best understood as a high-value salmon and wildlife landscape. BC Parks says it was established to protect salmon spawning habitat in Hanna and Tintina creeks and along Meziadin Lake shoreline. Approximately 75 percent of sockeye salmon in the Nass River watershed spawn in this area.
Those salmon values connect directly to other conservation values. The area provides provincially significant grizzly bear habitat and high-value moose winter range. It also includes rare wetland ecosystems, willow-thicket and riparian habitats, and mountain goat habitat on Hanna Ridge.
The cultural context is significant as well. BC Parks notes long First Nations use connected to salmon, wildlife, subsistence, cultural values, and a major trade route with trails running in multiple directions. Old roads and trails from past logging remain, many now overgrown.
Plan around conservation-focused travel, route awareness from Highway 37 and 37A, landscape photography, learning about salmon and wetland values, respectful cultural context, and careful observation from durable access points.
The official page does not list developed recreation facilities. Treat the conservancy as remote habitat protection, check BC Parks advisories, respect overgrown roads and trails, and avoid disturbing salmon streams, wetlands, or wildlife.
