Mount Harvey Trail Map & Hiking Guide: https://riseandalpine.com/2022/08/22/hiking-the-mount-harvey-trail-lions-bay-bc/ Nothing beats a hike close to home! The Mount Harvey trail is a rite of passage for any Lower Mainland hiker but, is not for the faint of heart. Tucked nearby to Vancouver, this knee shatteringly steep trail gains 1260m of elevation in approximately 5.6km. It’s not the highest peak close to home, but it’s close towering 1,652m over the city of Vancouver. Pain and suffering is the price of admission but the show is spectacular. Mount Harvey is my favourite viewpoint in the Lions Bay area and offers an amazing perspective of the North Shore Mountains, Sea To Sky, Howe Sound, Bowen Island, Gambier Island, The Sunshine Coast and of course the Mighty Lions.

No trip to Glacier National Park is complete without sweating up the Hermit trail! The Hermit trail is a glorious hiking route which is very popular among backpackers looking for the perfect day hike or one night camping opportunity in the park. I like to call it ‘natures stair master’ as it makes quick work of your quads climbing 800m in 2.8km and wasting no time before arriving at the Hermit meadows alpine bowl. <br /><br />The meadow itself is magical but what makes this area truly special are the amazing adventure’s to experience just beyond the bounds of the parks Canada obelisk!<br /><br />Meandering creeks, stunning mountain waterfalls, a secret high alpine lake, grassy tarns, glaciers and peaks galore hide just up from the campsite.<br /><br /><br />00:00 – Intro <br />00:20 – the Ascent <br />01:43 – Hermit Meadows & Campground <br />02:25 – Rogers Glacier Hike <br />03:07 – Amazing Waterfall <br />04:27 – The Tupper Glacier <br />05:39 – The Secret Lake
If you’ve ever wanted to be an astronaut and walk the surface of the moon but you just didn’t have the brains to do it (me). The Perley rock trail is as close as us mere mortals can get to a moon walk. This route is spectacular from start to finish and is a must-hike when visiting Glacier National Park.

Our final day was hands down the most scenic and my personal favourite. The coastline was rocky, the water was baby blue and there were sea stacks everywhere. Do not miss out on the Samuel H. Boardman Scenic corridor. I’ll never forget these views! 00:00 – Intro 00:06 – Waking up in Bandon 01:01 – Cape Blanco Lighthouse 01:28 – Port Orford Heads State Park 02:08 – Arizona beach 02:54 – Insane Views 03:13 – driving over poop 04:09 – Samuel H.

Just when I thought it couldn’t get any better it did. Our fifth day on the road was absolutely insane! We explored Cape Perpetua one of the most rugged, untouched and beautiful sections of the entire Oregon Coast. We made sure to stop at the Heceta Head Lighthouse, a fan favourite among serious photographers. I tried sandboarding for the first time on the Oregon Dunes. We then drove to Cape Arago which was one of my trip highlights and watched the sun fall at Sunset Beach State Park. What a Day! 00:00 – Intro 00:06 – Waking Up 00:27 – Beautiful Drive 01:07 – Cape Perpetua 01:56 – Heceta Head Lighthouse 02:29 – More Beautiful Driving 02:54 – Sandboarding 03:48 – Oregon Dunes 04:32 – Cape Arago 05:30 – Shore Acres Dinner 06:23 – Best Sunset Ever!
Our fourth day driving the Oregon Coast was fabulous. We explored Cape Kiwanda and felt like astronauts discovering the surface of a new planet. Sourced a HOT public shower which is a massive win. Went for an unbelievable hike in Lincoln city called the Knoll and Gods Thumb. Spotted plenty of Whales in Depoe Bay and finished our day off with a beautiful sunset at Newport beach. 00:00 – Intro 00:06 – Waking up 00:35 – Exploring cape Kiwanda 02:16 – Hot shower! 02:31 – The Knoll & Gods Thumb Hike 03:54 – Depoe Bay 5:00 – More beautiful coastline 5:41 – The Devils Punchbowl 06:10 – Yaquina Head Lighthouse 06:57 – Dinner in Newport 07:11 – Newport Beach Sunset
