I tested out a new cane (it's really pretty - purple with colourful flowers) & used my umbrella hat for our rainy day hike today.
We ran into 3 younger hikers with a super rad Aussie shepard dog along the trails & 2 of them complimented me on my blue hair. I responded with - I love colourful things! I'm wearing a mini circus tent on my head, as you can see! Then we all laughed 😂🤣
#FootpathFriday through the #forest 🌲🌲🌲
Rugged hiking trail, winding through luscious coastal temperate rainforest.

#ThrowbackThursday
4 years ago, I first met this gentle giant.
It's one of the only older Western red #cedar #trees left at #W̱MÍYEŦEN #NatureSanctuary. Most of the land had been logged more than once before it was acquired for conservation & rewilding. This is a 2nd growth cedar & it is over 150 yrs old.
The W̱MÍYEŦEN #Nature Sanctuary is a 42 acre protected forest and riparian area that supports biodiversity while preserving ecosystems and wildlife habitat. The tranquil natural environment, inspires an awareness of nature as teacher and essential ally.

I'm a member of this local, biodiverse nature sanctuary. They mainly rely on memberships & public donations. They work with #Indigenous leaders/educators/naturalists from #Wsanec First Nations. The name was changed from the former Mary Lake Sanctuary to W̱MÍYEŦEN Nature Sanctuary to respect that the property is on native lands.

I found this cool, lean-to survival shelter, while out on a day hike around some #Wsanec forests. It was an unexpected find. Not really suited for a really big person - I'm under 5' & had to stoop a bit to walk into it.

#WaterfallWednesday
Tsusiat Falls. From my 2006 hiking adventures.
One of the most popular & beautiful campsite spots/rest stops along the #WestCoastTrail is Tsusiat Falls. Tsusiat Falls is a main highlight on the trail with its dramatically wide picturesque appearance. You'll find Tsusiat Falls at the base of an extraordinary array of ladders extending hundreds of metres up into the trees.
