This summer I went out west with my Father. First week in, we went camping up in the area of Northern Vancouver Island. This specific image relates to a kayaking trip we ventured on during our trip-

My father and I had three main goals in mind for this trip. We would enter a specific cove, and use the directions set out by one of his friends to find some petroglyphs, some trilobites, and a hiking trail.

Well, we paddled by the wall that was supposed to have the glyphs. No luck. We went into the cove, tried searching for the hiking trail- where this photo was taken. Again, no dice. Third, in our effort to make real use of our day, we tried for the trilobite fossils. Once again, we had no encounter with such.

So instead we headed out on our kayaks and got escorted out by two porpoises (which we named "petroglyph" and "trilobite" respectively) and then had a run in with a humpback whale (which decided to spout a good 100 yards away from our kayak), who we named "hiking trail".

It was a great trip. It was by far, the most beautiful forest I have ever seen in my entire life. And that's not the bud talking.
