Good News for Paddling in Haida Gwaii

There's good news reported at thebigwild.org website. The federal government has actually come through on another of its promises -- this one to protect the marine ecosystems around Haida Gwaii. You can read about the new National Marine Conservation Area Reserve here.
The island chain that was known as the Queen Charlotte Islands for a while is now formally on the map under the name Haida Gwaii. Another step in the right direction.

  1. We've had the opportunity to paddle there on two different occasions - it's truly "another world". Something to put on every paddlers "bucket list". Always enjoy your posts, Paula. Duncan.
