One night we rescued a guy who was very afraid of bears. However he had the hiking guidebook "103 Hikes" with him, and used its pages to start a small fire.

And between you and me he needed to poop, so i think he also used the pages that way.

Hesquiat Trail, Day 1 โ€” Our challenging weeklong backpack got off to a leisurely start... www.instagram.com/p/DM3OOL_yY29/

For years, Iโ€™ve had a Nikon D7100 ๐Ÿ“ท (previously a D90) with 18-200mm lens.

Itโ€™s time to replace and downsize.

Iโ€™m looking for a lighter, more compact, still durable combo thatโ€™s excellent for hiking, travel, city life, etc.

Any recommendations? Thanks!

Sea lions and tides and black bears, oh my!

Highlights from 7 days of Wet Coast backpacking on the Hesquiat Trail โ€” a challenging fly-in/fly-out route in Hesquiaht First Nation territory on Vancouver Island, BC.

So many things are magical about Kฬ“viโ€™aรญ (Koeye) โ€” the Qqs (Eyes) Projects Society lodge and youth camp, the strength of Haรญษซzaqv (Heiltsuk) culture and stewardship, the stories, the medicine, the caring, the smiles, the pizza.

We were going to post this but Stephen beat us to it. Pancouver is multilingual. We already have nearly 300 Chinese-language articles @pancouver.bsky.social in both Traditional and Simplified. This year, we added Korean-language articles. Each is individually translated, not just run through Google.

Iโ€™ve been very disappointed with the BC GOVS recent shift away from climate action. We need to ensure our economic development is focused on the future - a transition away from fossil fuels
