Description: Once upon a time, Butedale was the site of a large and bustling salmon cannery. It even had its own fishing fleet. In its hayday, the facility at Butedale employed as many as 400 people. The salmon fishery declined, and the facility at Butedale was closed in the 1950s. It's fun to tie up at Butedale, visit with Lou, the caretaker, meet his faithful dog and cat, and stroll carefully around the ruins. Princess Royal Island, British Columbia.
