Ray's Farm +Ray's Mineral Spring's.
Something very special in Wells Gray Park is Ray's Farm, established in 1911 by John Ray before the first road was built in the area. He had reclaimed the land through clearing and settled his farm and family here.
After Ray's death in 1947, the family abandoned the farm.
The wide open spaces allowed for the establishment of plants and animals not found elsewhere in Wells Gray.
PIP 1,2,3
To ensure that the open space remains open today and that the platform continues to provide a beautiful view of the springs that provided fresh water for the farm, the forest is regularly cleared. Otherwise, the forest and the bushes would have long spread over the meadows.
