 We are home. Decided to leave the smoke behind and head home. Victoria's skies are brighter than Campbell River and it looks like it might clear even more this weekend. 

We did very little in Campbell River other than sit in the beautiful Elk Falls Provincial Park. It really was a relief to return to the park the few times we ventured out. The trees must filter the air because we could almost forget about the smoke while sitting there, 

Yesterday morning we headed to the falls and suspension bridge we knew about. The walk down to the bridge and back up confirmed affected my breathing and we headed home soon after. But at least we sampled the forest and saw the beautiful falls.

The falls are downstream from a dam. The surrounding forest and walkway to the bridge were logged in the 20’s but some old growth trees remain.
