What to bring


For head to toe comfort at camp or on the water

It can be sunny and warm most days, but it’s best to prepare for cooler days and cooler evenings. The temperature is on avererage 10 degrees cooler at our camp than in Vancouver. Temperatures range from between 13 and 24 degrees celsius at any time of the summer. It is not uncommon to to have wet weather or fog when other regions are dry. So it is best to take too much clothing than not enough. We will also be getting in and out of boats throughout the each day so appropriate foot wear is a must!
