The Kus-kus-sum site was once a tidally-influenced forested riparian area that provided habitat resources for fish and wildlife at the confluence of the Courtenay River and the K omoks Estuary. It is located along the salmonid migration corridor that connects the K omoks Estuary to upper watershed spawning habitats in the Puntledge, Morrison and Tsolum Watersheds.
