British Columbias Mysterious Northern Islands | Destination Adventure


Haida Gwaii has always been a dream of mine to visit. It is remote, hard to access, rarely visited and most of all, rich in history. The first nations people have been living here for more than 6000 years, and the culture is still strong today. Europeans made it to Haida Gwaii in the mid 1800s, and that chapter of our history book is a very dark one, and was almost the end of the Haida People. Populations have slowly risen back over the decades, and with it came the culture. Ancient culture is still common practice on the islands today, and I am looking very much forward to learning as much as I can during my stay. History of the first nations is most prevalent, but scattered all around the island is bits and pieces of history from cultures all around the world. This is the final piece of land between Canada and Japan, and the rugged coastline is littered with shipwrecks, totem poles, villages and more. It is one of the few places that still has stories to be discovered.

I am visiting for a month, and I truly can not wait to dig into some of the stories and adventures here. In this episode I try to cross off the "touristy" locations, because I want to see it all, but then our focus will go to the remote and hard to get to places.
