salmon spotting at quinsam river
Living where we do one can't help but think about salmon at this time of year. Throughout the fall months you are bound to catch glimpses of spawning salmon on any number of local creeks, rivers and waterways. Each time I witness the marvel of salmon struggling upstream I am as amazed as the very first time. Some miracles of nature remain miraculous, no matter what.
In this spirit we are planning a hike at Quinsam River on Saturday, October 2nd in hopes of seeing this great migration up close. We will meet at the parking lot just past the bridge on Quinsam Road at 1pm.
This is becoming an annual tradition with Into the Wild. Last season's walk, in spite of the heavy rain, was probably my favourite of the entire year. We really hope you can come out and join us.
Into the Wild Family Nature Club is an informal way for families to get together and enjoy the outdoors. We meet once a month usually on the weekends for different events. The time and place to meet is posted here and through our email newsletter. Locations are chosen for easy access from Campbell River and the Comox Valley. Most events involve a hike and picnic or snack. Just show up and enjoy the fun.
A few things to keep in mind: *You are responsible for the care of your own children. *Dress for the weather, rain or shine
*Bring water and snacks
*Be flexible - always a good idea when children are involved! *Have fun
