These photos from 2003 were taken at beautiful Long Beach at Tofino on Vancouver Island, British Columbia.

TRAVEL THE WORLD - POWELL RIVER, CANADA

Powell River is located on the coast of BC opposite Campbell River on Vancouver Island. The town began when a pulp and paper mill was opened in 1908 and grew until the mill was one of the largest in the world. When we visited in 2003, there was a lot of unemployment in the area, as the mill had been down-sizing its production. The photo is taken from the municipal campground, one of the nicest we had ever seen, located directly on the Pacific Ocean which you can see in the photo.

This sunset over the Pacific Ocean was photographed in 2003 at the Wilmingdon Beach Campground in Powell River. This is an excellent campground in a very beautiful location set among the high cedar trees you will find on the West Coast of Canada.
