Finally - the rest of the shots all done and organized:

I went on a 4 day hiking trip with our Venturer Scouts to Cape Scott Provincial Park.  For those that don't know where it is, here is a map to give you an idea:  Cape Scott Hiking Map

Here are a few photos from the beautiful wilderness of Northern Vancouver Island:

Great shots! Looks like you had some sunshine... that area is notoriously rainy. Takes some good luck to avoid the drizzle :D

Did you see any wildlife?

I went out with a buddy about 10 years ago and we also had good weather. Saw a marten or weasel or something similar dart across the path but nothing big.

We saw whales passing by Nels bight and an Osprey fishing at Guise Bay. No land animals :( 

This was my 4th time there - each of the 3 previous times, at least ONE day was rainy.  This summer's drought really made a difference!
