September in Paradise

Today's Centre volunteer Keith reported a busy day in Paradise Meadows! The return to beautiful weather encouraged numerous international visitors to the park - from Switzerland, Hungary, France, the UK, & beyond, as well as Vancouver Island residents.
A series of double-sided laminated placemats showing plants of BC ecosystems have been popular at the Centre - one of the set of four (the Garry oak meadows) has sold out but can easily be re-ordered - please contact us through the Strathcona Wilderness Institute website. The others in the set are Alpine flowers, Douglas fir forests, and Interior grasslands which are in stock at the Centre.

The Comox District Mountaineering Club successfully completed their annual trip to the Comox Glacier - report & photos here.
