From high above British Columbia’s Bowen and Gambier Islands, we begin an epic aerial exploration that follows the rugged contours of the Sunshine Coast. The town of Gibsons is one of Canada’s most iconic towns, and it was once the setting for one of the country’s longest running television programs, Beachcombers. Today, as the heart of the region’s forestry sector, the town continues to be a flurry of activity. Later in the journey, we reveal a different type of forestry altogether at the site ofa Hydro Dam built decades ago. The trees, perfectly preserved for future harvest, are a spectacular sight from the air. Heading inland, our journey culminates at the breathtaking Princess Louisa Inlet, one of the West Coast’s most hidden gems.
