Driving Directions: Nanaimo to the Wickaninnish Inn Your Overall Travel Time from Nanaimo to the Inn Will Range Between 2.5 and 3 Hours Driving Directions: Nanaimo to the Wickaninnish Inn Your overall travel time from Nanaimo to the Inn will range between 2.5 and 3 hours. ● Travel north on Highway 19 for 43km (26 miles). ● Take Exit 60 onto Highway 4 (also known as the Pacific Rim Highway) heading west for 156km (97 miles). You will drive through spectacular Cathedral Grove, historic Port Alberni (drive straight downhill and turn right at the junction/river), and on the winding road around Sproat and Kennedy Lakes. You will also drive through scenic Sutton Pass—at an altitude of 250m (850 feet)—where we especially recommend heeding to the speed limit. Travel westward until you come to the junction between Tofino and Ucluelet. ● Turn right at the Tofino/Ucluelet junction and drive north towards Tofino for 28km (17 miles). Do not turn at the sign for Wickaninnish Beach or Wick Road, but continue right through the Pacific Rim National Park Reserve toward Tofino. ● Once you pass Chesterman Beach Road on the left, take your next left turn at the Wickaninnish Inn sign onto Lynn Road (at the crosswalk). ● Approximately 250 yards down Lynn Road, take the right fork onto Osprey Lane and continue for 300 yards until you reach the Inn. The first building to come into view on your left is Wickaninnish-On-the-Beach, followed by Wickaninnish-At-the-Pointe. Your confirmation will show which building houses your guest room. We wish you safe travels, and look forward to welcoming you!.

  • Favourability Map of British Columbia Geothermal Resources
    Favourability Map of British Columbia Geothermal Resources by Sarah Kimball A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIRMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF APPLIED SCIENCE in The Faculty of Graduate Studies (Mining Engineering) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) September, 2010 © Sarah Kimball, 2010 Abstract British Columbia‟s internal demand for power and demand from export operations is increasing the need for power generation in the province. Moreover, the transition to a low carbon economy stipulates that power supply must be from renewable and low emission sources. Geothermal energy offers significant benefits to British Columbia which hosts Canada‟s best geothermal resources associated with the Pacific Ring of Fire along the Coast Mountain Range. The objective of this work was to visualize and compare the spatial distribution of geothermal resources, transmission infrastructure, and power markets in BC. Using ArcGIS, these factors were combined into a map identifying the most favourable regions for geothermal development in the province. Multi- criteria evaluation of 10 evidence layers was completed in a knowledge-driven model. Publicly available data for temperature gradient, heat flow, volcanic centers, geothermometry, hot springs, geology, faults, and earthquake indicators comprised the resource factor map. Evidence layers in the market and infrastructure factor map included: distance to transmission, regional pricing, and population density. Evidence layers were assigned weights based on a judgment of their importance to geothermal favourability using the Analytical Hierarchy Process. The favourability map builds on the 1992 Geothermal Resources Map of British Columbia by incorporating new data, and applying spatial buffers based on studies from producing geothermal fields from around the world.
