Canoeing the Mackjack River into Raft Cove on Vancouver Island
The Mackjack river is a hidden gem. But let’s be clear right off the bat – it is not for the faint of heart, and definitely requires a certain kind of preparedness to enjoy it the most. As a kid, I grew up canoe tripping down rivers and across lakes, so when Rob mentioned he…

i’m a jerk | breaking free & being sentimental

the blues, greens and microbialites of Marble Canyon in British Columbia
We were at Birkenhead Lake on one of the (hard-to-come-by) summer days we’ve had, and a man and his son pulled up to the dock with an interesting sail boat. It caught our eye and so we started chatting. After sharing about spots we loved in B.C, I asked him what his favourite place was,…
cliff jumping in Lions Bay, in British Columbia’s Sea-to-Sky corridor
