Spring, Summer, and Fall
The Golden BC area, and in particular where we live in the Blaeberry Valley, offers so many beautiful activities from May to October!
The Spring, Summer, and Fall all offer beautiful experiences. There is amazing trail hiking and river rafting during the Summer! In the Fall the Salmon spawn up the Blaeberry River attracting the Bald Eagles who feast on them. And in the Spring the orchids and wildflowers along the Blaeberry River are simply stunning. And world renowned Birdwatching in all 3 seasons.
The Summer here is amazing!
