We will spend our first night at Whiskey Landing Lodge, Thank you for a wonderful right in the heart of the community overlooking the “unplugging from civilization”, working harbor. Mid afternoon we will gather into our accommodations and join together for a dinner that educational, and gastronomic evening in the classic west coast hotel. delight trip. We enjoyed the rainbows, tidepool life, ducks, minks, eagles, osprey, giant sea stars, bears and whales. We look forward to joining you again. Susan and Ken Wiegman, Outer Shores Travellers Day 2 Prior to boarding Passing Cloud we will tour the local aquarium, to get an introduction to some of the sea life we will experience on the days to come. Once we board the ship, we will set sail for the Broken Group Islands. As we sail through Macoah Passage we will be on the look out for spawning Pacific herring and the grey whales, seabirds, and sea lions that congregate here to feast on this ecological bonanza. We’ll also hope to encounter some of the newest arrivals to Barkley Sound, the sea otter population that is re-colonizing this region. Come late afternoon we’ll drop anchor in a natural lagoon between Dodd, Willis and Turtle Islands and take the opportunity to sea kayak, take a zodiac tour, and shore walk, exploring the old growth forest and white-sand beaches found here. We’ll respectfully observe and discuss the deep shell middens, stone fish traps and ancient clam gardens we encounter, left here by the Tseshaht First Nation over the thousands of years they’ve inhabited this region. 4 Day 3 An early morning beach walk kicks-off our second day onboard, as we take advantage of the low tide to explore the world of diverse creatures like giant green anemones, lemon nudibranchs, bat stars, giant gumboot chitons, frilled dog whelks, peanut worms, purple encrusting sponges, and iridescent seaweed that flourish in this unique and fascinating ecosystem. We follow up our morning of discovery with a hot breakfast, fresh coffee, and tea as we prepare to heave up anchor and sail to Effingham Inlet in the north of the sound. Here we go ashore to explore the coastal estuary and hopefully catch a glimpse of foraging black bears. Next comes a sail through the Imperial Eagle Channel in search of humpback whales and harbour porpoises before anchoring in the Deer Group Islands for the night. Day 4 We are now in the traditional territory of the Huu- ay-aht First Nation. In the past, the Huu-ay-aht First Nations people drew all they required from the wilderness and wildlife of this exceptionally productive environment. We will visit the coastal community of Bamfield, home to the Bamfield Marine Sciences Centre, which now figures prominently in this historic boardwalk community. Day Our afternoon has us sailing back across the Trevor 5 and Imperial Eagle Channels to the Broken Group Islands. Here we’ll go ashore to explore ancient stone This morning we travel to Benson Island to tour fish weirs at the “Great Tidepool,” before sailing past the ancient village site of “C’isaa”, birthplace of an outstanding sea lion haul-out site later in the day. the Tseshaht First Nation that was occupied for at We will anchor overnight at Wouwer Island. least 5000 years. Here we will see the large shell middens that are the result of thousands of years of marine subsistence at this site. Later this morning we’ll cruise past the tiny ancient “fortress island” of Dicebox Island and learn about the archaeological research conducted here, shining some light on the socio-political-ecological dynamics that made this slight piece of land so vital some 1,500 years ago. In the afternoon we will leisurely stroll and explore the white- sand beaches of Clark or Turret Island before sailing and sea kayaking throughout the afternoon. Day 6 Looking to squeeze every last drop out of this expedition, we will take a final morning shore walk, zodiac excursion, or exploration sea kayak today before heaving anchor and heading back to Ucluelet, all the while keeping out eyes peeled for more sea otters, whales and seabirds as we make our way back to port to say our final reluctant farewells prior to a disembarkation. 5 If you have any questions about our 360 B Harbour Road expeditions, or a specific detail about the Victoria, British Columbia expedition you have booked, please let V9A 3S1, Canada us know by phone or visit our website for more information.

  • Heinrich Zimmermann and the Proposed Voyage of the Imperial and Royal Ship Cobenzell to the North West Coast in 1782-17831 Robert J
    Heinrich Zimmermann and the Proposed Voyage of the Imperial and Royal Ship Cobenzell to the North West Coast in 1782-17831 Robert J. King Johann Heinrich Zimmermann (1741-1805) a navigué sur le Discovery lors du troisième voyage de James Cook au Pacifique (1776-1780) et a écrit un compte du voyage, Reise um die Welt mit Capitain Cook (Mannheim, 1781). En 1782 il a été invité par William Bolts à participer à un voyage à la côte nord-ouest de l'Amérique partant de Trieste sous les couleurs autrichiennes impériales. Ce voyage était conçu comme réponse autrichienne aux voyages de Cook, un voyage impérial de découverte autour du monde qui devait comprendre l'exploitation des possibilités commerciales du commerce des fourrures sur la côte nord- ouest et le commerce avec la Chine et le Japon. Zimmermann a été rejoint à Trieste par trois de ses anciens compagnons de bord sous Cook -- George Dixon, George Gilpin et William Walker, chacun destiné à naviguer comme officier sur le navire impérial et royal Cobenzell. Les lettres et le journal de Zimmermann qui ont survécu fournissent une source valable à cette étude des origines du commerce maritime des fourrures sur la côte nord-ouest. On 24 July 1782, George Dixon wrote from Vienna to Heinrich Zimmermann, his former shipmate on the Discovery during James Cook’s 1776-1780 expedition to the North Pacific: Dear Harry, Yours I Rec‘d, and am glad you have Resolution, like the Honest Sailor which I allways have taken you for, and are willing to be doing sum thing both for your self and the Country.

  • Broken Group Islands 2020 Paddler's Preparation Guide
    BROKEN GROUP ISLANDS 2020 PADDLER’S PREPARATION GUIDE Backed by the Insular Mountain Range of Vancouver Island and facing the open Pacific Ocean, Pacific Rim National Park Reserve (Pacific Rim NPR) represents and protects both the near shore waters and the coastal lowland forests of Canada’s west coast. Pacific Rim NPR is composed of three distinct areas; Long Beach, the West Coast Trail (WCT), and the Broken Group Islands (BGI). The BGI in Barkley Sound is an outstanding example of a marine archipelago comprising a stunning maze of channels, sheltered bays, shell beaches, densely forested islands, exposed reefs and bare, wind-swept rocks. The islands are only accessible by boat. Balancing protection, education and recreational use of our national parks is a responsibility not only of Parks Canada and our partners, but also of national park reserve visitors. This preparation guide is intended to help you prepare for a safe and enjoyable visit while supporting the sustainability of our special heritage places for future generations. 2 FIRST NATIONS The traditional territories of the Nuu-chah- nulth First Nations encompass the Broken Group Islands. The islands contain many sites of spiritual and cultural significance for the Tseshaht and Hupacasath First Nations. Disturbing, destroying or removing natural and cultural artifacts is strictly prohibited without prior written permission or licences. There are first nation reserve lands on Effingham, Nettle, and Keith Islands. Day visitors are only welcome at the reserve lands on Keith Island. For Effingham and Nettle Island reserve lands written permission from the appropriate First Nation is required prior to landing.
