Taaw Tldáaw

Taaw Tldáaw, formerly known as Tow Hill, is a large isolated volcanic plug located 21 km (13 mi) east of Masset on the north end of the Naikoon Peninsula of northeast Graham Island in Haida Gwaii, British Columbia, Canada, east of McIntyre Bay and near the mouth of the Hiellen River,[1] which is the site of Hiellen, a now-abandoned Haida village and of the Hiellen Indian Reserve No.

The name Taaw Tldáaw was officially restored in 2022 as part of the Haida's ongoing efforts to reclaim their indigenous land rights and sovereignty.

[4] Taaw Tldáaw consists of faceted columnar-jointed basalt columns that solidified about two million years ago during the Pleistocene epoch.

"This feature is an eroded volcanic plug - the most distinctive navigational landmark on the entire North Beach.

Tow is derived from a Haida word that rhymes with "cow", and means place of food.
