We spent a couple of hours, walking around Hemer Provincial Park, yesterday. We both love this park & it was a fave when we lived in Cedar, at different times - back before we'd met.
Nice mixed forest. We found a big hollowed out trunk that went down pretty deep - it's the photo of Beau standing inside. Huge ferns, nettles & skunk cabbage plants were all over the park.
Wonderful time, immersing with nature, together 🥰#HemerPark #BCParks #CedarBC #Nanaimo #Ladysmith #VancouverIsland #VanIsle #PacificNorthwest #PNW #Parks #forest #nature #GetOutside #NatureWalks

The #BCNDP #BCgovernment has said no to a proposal to create a #ProtectedArea for an area of #OldGrowth #cedars near #DuncanLake.
"At this time, #BCParks is not considering including this area in the provincial protected areas system," wrote Minister of Land, Water and Resource Stewardship #NathanCullen in a letter to Grant Trower of Howser, B.C., on Sept. 3.
Trower is the founder of the group #WildlifeHabitatsForTomorrow that has been advocating for the protection of a 531-hectare grove and wetland.
He wants #BritishColumbia to declare the #CedarGroves a protected area, which is a category of protection just short of a full-fledged provincial park.
“There are many #trees in this grove that are well over 1,000 years old, and one that is estimated to be 2,100 years old,” said Trower. “They are the largest trees in the whole southern interior #rainforest. It isn’t just old growth. It’s #ancient old growth.”
He told the Nelson Star that Cullen's letter will not deter him.
"The advocacy is ongoing to ensure this special place will remain for our kids and grandchildren, for this grove is unique and easy to experience," he said, adding that the next steps will include media attention, targeted field trips and obtaining #FirstNations #endorsement.

Upper Goldstream Falls in Summer.
I like it more in Winter & early Spring - when almost no one else is there.#waterfalls #GoldstreamPark #nature #GoldstreamRiver #DisabledHiker #InTheForest #Trees #BCparks #yyj #VictoriaBC #vanisle #VancouverIsland #PNW #PacificNorthwest #Cascadia #BritishColumbia #Canada #Westcoast #TheGreatOutdoors #NatureAdventure #ExploreNature #forest #river #NatureLover

Beautiful 2nd growth cedar tree. Branches are covered in moss & lichens.

Please enjoy & excuse my not smiling face.
I wanted to show folks that nature never wastes anything. I wanted to show how this dead tree is feeding new life growths & how many animals benefit from us letting nature do its thing.#GoldstreamPark #nature #DisabledHiker #InTheForest #Trees #HikingTrails #BCparks #yyj #VictoriaBC #vanisle #VancouverIsland #PNW #PacificNorthwest #Cascadia #BritishColumbia #Canada #Westcoast #TheGreatOutdoors #NatureAdventure #HikingMakesMeHappy #NatureLover

I saw this huge Douglas fir tree trunk on our way back to parking spot.
When I first saw it - shouted out - LOOK AT THAT! They are WOOD SHORTS!
Then, my friend took a pic of me with the big wood shorts.#GoldstreamPark #nature #DisabledHiker #InTheForest #BCparks #yyj #VictoriaBC #vanisle #VancouverIsland #PNW #PacificNorthwest #Cascadia #BritishColumbia #Canada #Westcoast #TheGreatOutdoors #NatureAdventure #HikingMakesMeHappy #ExploreNature #TreeTrunk #NatureLover

Last section of a long series of stairs that lead down from the hiking trail to the river & Upper Goldstream waterfalls.
They should install safety railings on at least one side of those stairs w/none.
