This is a guide only! There are potential hazards everywhere you go and you must decide for yourself if a place is right for your fitness level to explore. These designations are strictly meant to help you decide if you want to visit a place. You are naturally responsible for your own safety and to know your own limitations when traveling. I make no representations to the accuracy of these designations, they are the subjective opinions of the people posting.  Now that the ‘I’m not responsible for your safety’ part is out of the way- happy exploring of this magnificent and wild Vancouver Island and it’s Best Places!
