Mile 25.2 (42 km)
Tlell can trace its roots back to agricultural pioneers. The settlement was started in 1904, when Mexican Tom started a ranch. Other homesteaders soon followed and in 1919, Eric Richardson, an Englishman, bought what is now the Richardson Ranch. Farming is still active in the area and Tlell is home to the headquarters for Naikoon Provincial Park. This is also a very active artisan community with many talented artists living here.

For the adventurous there is a two hour walk (each way) from the Tlell River that will take you to the weathered remains of the Pesuta. Start at the picnic site at the Tlell River Bridge where you will find a map of the well laid out trail. This 2,150-ton wooden cargo ship ran aground during a storm in December of 1928.

There is camping at Misty Meadows, and excellent beachcombing and rock hounding.
