Canada's Pacific Coast

by Unknownsu - last update: Jun 10, 2003

First Look

Vancouver Skyline
Two things that best describe BC are mountains and an ocean. Some of Canada’s most breathtaking scenery and home to one of the largest Canadian cities, Vancouver. The western most Province of Canada provides lush green agriculture and forests along with snow capped mountain tops waiting for the visitor to discover!
Feasting Grizzly

Fauna

Mountains, lakes, rivers and forest yield wildlife; BC is an especially favorable habitat for predators. Eagles and bears, wildcats and salmon, mountain goats and sea lions - condense BC's wildlife to that little line of doggerel and you'd have captured about half of the most notable denizens of this geographic wonderland.
Big Leaf Maple

Flora

More than 60% of British Columbia is forested by Douglas fir, cedar and spruce dominating the coastal forests while pine, spruce and hemlock mark the interior. BC is also home to the Big Leaf Maple, a very large hardwood that has the biggest leaf of all northern hemisphere deciduous trees - sometimes as large as 18 inches across.
