This is great little island, a residential island with the Pirate theme.
All the roads are marked with Pirate names
Pirate Lane, Silvers Tier, Pirates Place, Spyglass Lookout, Captain Morgans Blvd, and best of all... Smugglers park :)

A wonderful treasure to find on a day when i was thinking about Biking the bike trails of Nanaimo, but decided not to as it was raining.. and i didnt want to hear the screeching of the wet break pads against the wheels. ... (im a good cyclist.. but multitasking in the rain... it's a good idea. .. gotta stop each time you make a waypoint and notes anyway.

About this treasure... if you ever go there.. even on an island which people didnt adversise togo to as the next island is another ferry ride away which is a provincial park with lots of trails... this one has Spyglass Lookout .. a dead end road where at the end you have a great view of the city against the contrast forground of this natural mini-beach at low tide & marsh area at high tide. .. Just taking a moment to listen to the wildlife. then listen to the background noisy big city.

A great day of mapping. :)

It'll show up soon... just gotta decipher my notes. (you'll see the GPS tracks anyway)

位置: Protection Island, Nanaimo, Regional District of Nanaimo, British Columbia, Canada
