  1. When the days are short, the light is low, palm trees sway in the wind, cool sea breezes blow all the way from Alaska, and, somehow, it feels like the leaves rustle in the distance, even at this southernmost reach of the seemingly "Infinite Coast".

    Taken one November outside San Diego, by yours truly.

  20. #Namgis #FirstNation #BigHouse - #AlertBay #CormorantIsland. From my 2023 visit.

    The Namgis #FirstPeoples use their big house for cultural #community events. #T̓sasała #Cultural Group uses the big house for sharing cultural teachings, songs & dances.

    "You will see the next generation of #Kwakwa̱k̕a̱wakw sharing our culture to educate the world about our ancient songs, dances, teachings and values. These teachings are still being passed on today to the children of T'sasała.

    You will witness the dances of the T̕seka, our red cedar bark ceremony. You will see the traditional dances that connect us to the land, sky, and sea. The #T̕seka will be followed by the T̕ła'sala ceremony - peace dances, then finally the #A̱mlala or fun dances where you will get a chance to join in."

    #Beach gooseneck #barnacles find.
    There's 3 different types of barnacles found in BC waters/on beaches - acorn, gooseneck & whale - the latter grows on whales' bodies. Barnacles are a longtime, year-round staple #seafood for coastal #Indigenous #FirstNations. In particular, the #Haida & #Kwakwakawakw & #Pacheedaht #FirstPeoples have several documented stories involving barnacles, including food prep recorded histories.

    Barnacles are #ancient and can be dated to the middle of Cambrian period of Paleozoic because of Burgess Shale deposits in #BritishColumbia. They're #hermaphroditic #MarineAnimals.

  22. One of my fave isolated #beaches to have a fire & hang out, watching the #ocean 😊 I love rock hunting here too. I've found lots of interesting rocks here before.
    It's a 45 minute drive from our home to get to this spot. I saw no one else there, on my last visit.
