Tropical and subtropical coniferous forests in Kwai Lake, Canada

  38 km from Great Central Lake


This photo was taken at Kwai Lake in Strathcona Provincial Park, BC. We had hiked nearly 10km in the rain that day and were overjoyed when we finally arrived at our beautiful destination. While we were setting up camp for the night, I managed to sneak off to capture the fog over the lake, welcoming us to the area.

Mountain in Forbidden Plateau - Helen Mackenzie Lake Loop, Canada

  40 km from Great Central Lake


This is a small creak leading to Battleship lake in Strathcona Park on Vancouver Island. It was beautiful in Winter but I bet it is even better in the summer. This place is now on my summer camping bucket list.

travelers stories about Forest in Lone Cone, Canada

Forest in Lone Cone, Canada

  54 km from Great Central Lake


I hiked Lone Cone in Tofino with my husband and dog. The trees are very dense , so when you’re looking at the island from the other side of the water, you can’t tell that the ground is covered in icy snow. What struck me was the contrast of the vibrant green with the snowy patches…and looking up gave my eyes a bit of relief from the intensity, only to find this soothing view.

travelers stories about Canoeing in Qualicum Beach, Canada

Canoeing in Qualicum Beach, Canada

  55 km from Great Central Lake


We were spending the week in Qualicum, BC and decided one evening to take our kayaks out to enjoy the sunset. Shortly after setting out on the water everything calmed down and the water turned to glass. I never thought the ocean could be so calm. The sunset was amazing as well. Purple hues were cast over the mountains in the distance. Everything reflected off the water like a mirror. It felt like we were in a dream.

While venturing into an old forest in Tofino, British Columbia I could help but be mesmerized by just how thick some of the trees trunks were. I came across this trunk that sprawled like roots and was fascinated by its shape and all the moss growing on top of it.

This was the view from the front deck of the cottage I stayed at in Tofino this past weekend. Before you get too jealous, it rained most of the weekend so we didn’t get a chance to use these chairs. However, it cleared up the last day right before we left and I got this photo.

travelers stories about Kayaking in Bamfield, Canada

Kayaking in Bamfield, Canada

  60 km from Great Central Lake


Bamfield on Vancouver Island in British Columbia, Canada is a remote community that is home to a sophisticated marine science research centre, but also to a town that is spread out between a number of inlets. I loved this photo because we had the amazing experience of kayaking in amongst these inlets and remote areas that are untouched. Shortly after this photo was taken, I saw an elusive humpback whale emerge from the sea briefly and never saw it again.

Forest in Bamfield, Canada

  64 km from Great Central Lake


At Pachena Bay Campground in Bamfield, we had a campsite that was only steps to the beach. In a fog zone like on Vancouver Island’s west coast, there are seldom fire bans, but it is also cold at night. The weekend spent camping in Bamfield was among my favourite getaways, and by far my fondest camping experience. The entire weekend we witnessed gray whales feeding on krill from this beach, and evenings were spent sitting by the fire and watching the sunset. Truly peaceful.

Forest in Westwood Lake Trail, Canada

At the lake where I spent the most time during my childhood, this particular moment was still one I had never seen before. The combination of sun and fog was spectacular as it danced among the layers of forest that sat above the lake.

This log has obviously been drifting for a while before it washed up on this stone beach in Juan de Fuca Provincial Park. It was the color that stood out from the rest of the beach and caught my eye.

We never thought that riding a ferry would be such an exciting part of the trip, cause till now we thought of them more of a way to transport yourself on the other shore. But apparently, we have a thing for boats and no seasickness 🌊

travelers stories about Mountain range in Sunshine Coast, Canada

Mountain range in Sunshine Coast, Canada

  113 km from Great Central Lake


On this trip to the Tantalus Range I was forced to come to terms with the tradeoff that exists in the high alpine mountains: beauty and danger. One of our teammates fell 40 metres from the face of a mountain to the snow below. He was evacuated via helicopter. This picture was taken hours later. The horror of the fall and the peaceful beauty of the sunset demonstrated that the mountains are indifferent to our presence.
