  Stokes Valley - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Stokes Valley is a major suburb of Lower Hutt, in the North Island of New Zealand.
It is located at the northeastern edge of the city seven kilometres northeast of the city centre, in the valley of a small tributary of the Hutt River, which flows north to meet the main river close to the Taita Gorge.
As the suburb is in its own valley, separated from the main part of the city by a forested area, its cultural identity differs slightly from the rest of Lower Hutt.

 The Story Of An Old Copper Kettle By ken woodward
By the treaty that ended the war, the Stokes family is able to retain title to the Santa Maria and Santa Ysabel land grants.

Later in the 19th century, after the sale of their land in the Santa Maria Valley, the Stokes family moves to the San Luis Rey Valley, near Oceanside, and the old copper kettle again is moved to a new home.

 Lower Hutt Information
The city centres on the lower (southern) valley of the Hutt River, to the northeast of Wellington.
The valley widens as the river nears its mouth, meaning that the central urban area of the city forms a triangle with its widest side along the shoreline.
The western hills have been populated as residential areas, but the eastern side is protected and clad in native bush and scrub, including the ubiquitous gorse in areas that have been cleared as a result of scrub fires or earlier human activity.

 P.O.V. - The Fire Next Time . Film Synopsis | PBS
Most ominously — in news that flashed across the nation and even around the world — a shadowy terror group called Project 7 was discovered with a cache of arms and a hit list of local government officials, police officers and their families.
But conflict in the Flathead Valley speaks loudly because it is one of America's premier wilderness getaway destinations.
Everyone agrees things took a sharp turn when failed political aspirant John Stokes came to town, bought local radio station KGEZ, and began hosting a daily talk show that was, for some, a breath of fresh air — and for others, a hateful and threatening voice.

 Wellington Botanical Society Article - Diplodium alveatum at Stokes Valley – a new North Island record
Diplodium alveatum at Stokes Valley – a new North Island record.
alveatum is becoming established in northwest Nelson, but it is too early to say whether the plant at Stokes Valley represents an extension of the range from Nelson; it may simply be a chance germination of seed blown from either Nelson or Australia.
The occurrence of the species at Stokes Valley reminds us all to keep an eye out for the unusual wherever we happen to be.

 Halawa Valley, Molokai: National Park Service Study
The traditional Hawaiian way of life continued in the Halawa Valley well into the 20th century.  It was not until 1957, when a huge tsunami pushed ocean waves far up the valley and left the taro crop ruined in their wake, that the valley was abandoned.
Professional archeologists have attributed the Halawa Valley's cultural significance to its uniqueness in providing a more complete understanding of the initial phases of Hawaiian adaptation and cultural evolution.  This gives the cultural resources at Halawa a significance beyond the valley itself.  Halawa is significant also as an example of the evolution of Polynesian culture.
The study area is feasible in terms of being of sufficient size and appropriate configuration to ensure the long-term protection of its cultural resources and to accommodate public use.  The existing roadway would provide a feasible means for accessing a unit of the national park system.

 Annasanna - Forest Perceptions
Given the rapid depletion of the world's forests and the associated population explosion problem, a monk who dwells in a monastery which is located in a forest situation has good reason to count his blessings.
Having been able to move from one forest monastery to another, from Serpentine, Western Australian to Stokes Valley, New Zealand, I wonder how long such a privileged option will be available to our Forest Tradition monks.
Serpentine is a dry eucalypt forest whereas Stokes Valley is wet, temperate rain forest: quite a contrast, but each is very attractive in its own way.

 Hank Stokes - The Valley Observer. Palm Springs Life Magazine
From Connecticut to the Coachella Valley, Nov. 7 will bring at least a brief national suspension of campaign posing, polling, and speech-ifying — but not, we hasten to note, of media punditry and pontification.
One of these, ironically, is right here: the 80th Assembly District, which currently consists of the West Valley linked to the East Valley by a strip running north of Interstate 10, plus all of rural, largely Latino Imperial County.
True, Democrats hold pluralities of reg-istered voters in three of the valley’s nine cities — heavily so in Coachella with its small voting base and by ratios of about 5 to 4 in Indio and Palm Springs.

 Hutt City travel guide - Wikitravel
Much of the flat land in the lower valley has now been urbanised, though the steep and relatively undeveloped valley hillsides, which are much more suited to forestry, as well as the many trees in private residential gardens, gives the city a rural feel.
Sheltered by the surrounding hills the weather [1] is less windy and generally warmer, although winter frosts are more severe, particularly further up the valley, away from the sea.
Suburbs such as Naenae, Taita, Pomare and Stokes Valley tend to have reputations as lower socioeconomic zones due to these areas having been developed with a lot of state rental housing.
