A beautiful #summer day to spend hiking the coastal trail at Helliwell Provincial Park on Hornby Island #photography #landscape #seascape #bchikes #helliwell #hornbyisland #gulfislands #bc #BlueSkyArtShow

A Fire lily grows on the side of the trail.

View into the marsh and spring area from the bridge along with a sign depicting the marshland and its confluence of waters. Information section reads: Source to the Sea Rising from this hummocky marsh, small streams merge and flow under this bridge to Columbia Lake. From here, the Columbia River flows 2000 km and tumbles over 14 dams to empty into the sea. As the spring water seeps through the wetland it is cleaned and filtered by plants and soil organisms. So while the lower reaches of the Columbia are quite polluted, here the water is still pure and full of life.

Pedestrian bridge spanning the water in the marshlands.

Water flows from the marshland towards Columbia Lake, this is the furthest point on the loop and has a couple benches out of frame.

The two tower like collections of finned hoodoos at the end of the two outcrops.

The upper tower area of one hoodoo set above Toby Creek.

Looking across both of the ridge lines of hoodoos. The glacial water in Toby Creek contrasts well with the orangish hoodoos.

This ridge line of hoodoos has thinned to little more than a single row. Toby Creek with glacial melt in it flows below.
