Pacific Rim National Park Reserve

admin — Wed, 23 Jun 2010 22:03:07 +0000

See rare underwater footage as well as spectacular views of Pacific Rim National Park Reserve from the air and on land. Get a feel for the rugged beauty of this coastal park and its wildlife. Observe sea birds and whales swimming in the ocean. Watch sea lions basking on a rock. Admire the varied landscape, from islands to rainforest to waterfalls. Follow a surfer riding the waves and sea kayakers exploring the rocky coastline. This video will show you why Pacific Rim is one of Canada’s national treasures.

Nestled between Vancouver Island’s coastal mountains and the open Pacific, Pacific Rim National Park Reserve protects dense coastal rainforests, an extensive coastline of rugged west coast beauty and sandy beaches pounded by the endless surf. Pacific Rim includes the Broken Group Islands archipelago, scenic Long Beach and the famous West Coast Trail, one of the Worlds premier backcountry hiking experiences. Teeming with life both above and below the waves, Pacific Rim is as rich and diverse in nature as it is beautiful and inspiring to visit.

admin — Sat, 29 May 2010 09:22:32 +0000

A nearly eye-level view of hiking the Nature Preserve Trail at White Clay Creek State Park, up and down, between the Nature Center and Chambers Rock Road. — non-stop, except for the two ends. Filmed on May 21, 2010. (This is Part 1 of 3; the entire round-trip at this pace takes 25 minutes.)
This part starts at the southern entrance to the trail from Creek Road (by the Nature Center) and goes northward. (If you take this trail yourself, along the way there are several little spurs that go off to the bank of the creek.)

Introduction video filmed at Glen Helen Nature Preserve in Yellow Springs, Ohio, on 2/6/2010. We had just had 6 inches of snow the night before, so the trees were covered with icey snow. Don’t miss the photos at the end of the video, as well! Music during photos is “Maybe I’ll Fall in Love”, produced by my dear friend and most excellent guitarist, John Behling.

Rocky Point Preserve: A slideshow

admin — Sat, 26 Dec 2009 21:04:40 +0000

The huge 5000+ acre Rocky Point state DEC preserve is one of the largest on Long Island. This is one of my favorite places to hike. The preserve lies in several municipalities…Rocky Point, Middle Island, Miller Place, and Ridge and stretches between rt.25A and 25. Here you will find a classic pine barrens habitat, as well as oak brush plains and a burn area throughout much of the preserve (burned in the 1995 wildfires) that is now recovering very well with many pine seedlings. There’s also a few ponds in the southern section of the preserve (south of Whiskey road).
A free permit is required here…you can get one from the NY State DEC.
