As a car-light person on Southern Vancouver Island, I deeply miss mountains. The low rolling hills that somehow pass for mountains south of Nanaimo are depressing to me.

All the time I spend in the mountain on Vancouver Island is pretty much the number one reason we have our vehicle

Even with a car, the mountains are a minimum of a three hour drive away. There aren't any real mountains to speak of south of Arrowsmith. Being in Victoria kind of sucks in this way.

Heather mountain and Lomas lake are near Lake Cowichan and pretty impressive. Not Strathcona or Arrowsmith but surprisingly good.

Still way too far.

Lomas Lake is typically done by riding a bike in halfway and stashing it in the bush and then hiking up to the lake and then summiting Mt Landale. You could bikepack to Lake Cowichan and then set out on adventure day from there.

Heather Mountain is awesome in late spring 💚🏕️

Okay you've sold me. That looks dope.

Canada looks amazing for backpacking, but - is it Grizzly country? I had a bear hang out just outside my tent in Tahoe and I didn’t sleep 😅 Just black bears in Tahoe, but still scary. So curious about the wildlife in Canada.

On most of Vancouver Island we don’t have grizzlies and only Black Bears. I hike solo and don’t carry any bear spray.
