A Vancouver Island getaway is perfect in the fall. Yes, you’ll contend with overcast skies and on-again-off-again rain, but it’s beautiful any time of year and travelling in the off season has advantages (lower rates, fewer people). Steve had a weekend work gig in Redmond, Washington so we decided to fly to Vancouver and hop a ferry to the Island for a couple of days beforehand.
We stayed at the lovely Point No Point resort and hiked the Juan de Fuca Marine Trail. We also went in search of the largest Douglas fir tree in the world. What we found instead is that I have a great imagination when it comes to cougars. This video post captures the highlights.
