From the Factsheet: "The Vernon Commonage spans over 6,500 hectares of largely intact natural landscape, located between the urban centres of Kelowna and Vernon and stretching between Okanagan and Kalamalka Lakes. This ecologically significant area features a diverse mosaic of hill slopes, grassland meadows, dry uplands, and open and closed coniferous forests, interwoven with wetlands, riparian corridors, and broadleaf woodlands—habitats that are increasingly rare in the arid Okanagan Valley."
