The BEST thing about coastal Vancouver Island ➙ we can hike and cycle year round.
As I post in January, we’ve yet to have any snow in Parksville.
This YouTube #short was shot on iPhone 16 Pro in vertical. In and around Qualicum Beach.
Most of the clips were shot in the Heritage Forest, a 50-acre pocket of old growth coastal Douglas fir, western red cedar, grand fir, Sitka spruce, and hemlock.
Personally, the many wildly varied stumps I found most photogenic.
