Dear PNOA Members, As we wrap up the first quarter of 2025, we want to extend our gratitude to all members who participated in our winter and early spring adventures. From exhilarating ski trips to challenging snowshoe treks, and even our annual general meeting (AGM), Q1 was filled with camaraderie, skill-building, and unforgettable experiences. Here’s…
碎片群岛(Broken Group Islands Unit)属于太平洋海岸国家公园 (Pacific Rim National Park Reserve),位于温哥华岛的西边, 被誉为划船者的天堂, 这是一片美丽而狂野的海岸雨林. 虽然公园的大部分地区都受到太平洋巨浪无遮挡的冲击,但碎片群岛却是例外, 该水域大部分时间风平浪静, 适合皮划艇运动初学者。虽然横穿海峡航道时,可能会遇到一些翻滚的海浪或白浪,但小心一点划,也不会有什么大问题。真正的新手可以请租船公司直接连人带船把你运到平静的水域再开始划. 我们在出发前做了充分的训练, 有能力抗拒风浪, 自然是全程划过去. 你可能会问,为什么要大老远跑去碎片群岛划船?为了体验遥远的西海岸的全貌:迷雾朦胧的海岸线, 阳光普照的寂静森林, 令人无法抗拒的海风, 宁静的海湾, 白色的沙滩, 碧绿清澈的海水, 还有水下摇曳生姿的水下植物, 簇拥在橙色和紫色海星周围的绿色海葵,停满了海鸥的礁石, 笨笨的海蛳, 紧紧依附在险峻的悬崖上的古树,就像一座座精心设计好的形态各异的盆景园,小鹿安静的吃草, 老鹰在头顶飞翔. 在这个世界的角落, 这么雄伟壮观的景色, 只有身临其境才能尽情感受。 像这么好的地方自然是热门景点, 行程都是要提前几个月预定好. 天气情况就只能听天由命了. 我们这次出行由PNOA经验丰富的Suzey 策划领队. 并邀请到专业搜救队员Andrew, 一个非常热心的白人小伙, 以及童子军资深领队Maddie 护航. 我们就没有什么需要操心的. 除了为皮划艇的防水舱小, 装不下太多食物而发愁. 因为岛上没有淡水, 五天的用水都需要自己带过去. 第一天, 8月25号, 晴 从温哥华出发, 乘中午的轮渡到Nanaimo 后又开了三个半小时, 才到达离Ucluelet 镇不远的秘密海滩营地. Suzey…
