Have no illusions nor delusions regarding what remains of Leech Town at the confluence of the Sooke and Leech Rivers on Vancouver Island. The forest has reclaimed its own. This is the site of the former town which sprang up in the wake of an 1864 gold discovery by a survey party headed by one Peter Leech. Hence the name of the larger river bearing his name.

Bill Irvine has made a profound study of this area over the past decade and has concluded the over-growth of the forest is unprecedented. Irvine first visited here in 1972 when one could drive their vehicle right down and onto the gravel area beside the Deep Pool at Kennedy Flat. This is where the drone was launch October 16 2018. The area is in fact so overgrown to the extent that access to the actual Leechtown site is blocked by an enormous pile of debris floated down Leech River during last year's flooding.
