When I was young, my dad always use to tell us many fun stories of bear encounters when he spent a couple summers working on the forestry service. He and a couple guys would...]]></description>

It&#8217;s a small island tucked in between Texada Island and Lasqueti Island, and the entire 243 hectare island is a designated marine park!
