River Beauty

Low River Water July, 2015

Still cool, gorgeous and green in a nearby river. A place to be during this drought.
Can you have a drought in a temperate rainforest?

Update July 3, 11 am:

Apparently the answer is yes. It’s official:

VICTORIA – Responding to dry conditions, the Government of B.C. has announced a Level 4 drought rating for Vancouver Island and the Gulf Islands, and taken the additional action of suspending angling in streams and rivers throughout southern Vancouver Island and the Gulf Islands due to ongoing low stream flows and warming water temperatures.
…more info at the govt. website.

Forest Treasure

Strange as it seems I was in this forest on business when I stumbled upon this surprise.
Anyone know the make, model, year?

Hiking Old Baldy Mountain

June 28, 2015

Hiking Old Baldy Mountain

This view is from the back side of Old Baldy Mountain looking west over the southern half of Shawnigan lake. We’re not at the top yet and this flat spot is a great place to take a photo (aka stopping to catch your breath) as the hike is a steep one. The main vista, from the top is east over the Gulf Islands.

Cooling off by the River

June 26, 2015

Chemainus River

Even though there’s normally a lot more water in this river at this time of year, it’s still a great place to cool off on a hot day. There are interesting rocks to explore, some deep pools and some shady areas.

Dunbabin Park Rain Forest Trail

Dunbabin Park Rain Forest Trail on the ‘north end’ (Salt Spring Island)
Cool shade on a warm summer day. And a moment for quiet reflection. If you have time to do that.
