      I recommend pulling over at a random lake by the side of the road and wading out into it.

        If you love the outdoors check out Hinton, Crowsnest Pass, Nordegg, and Drumheller.
        Jasper and Banff are great for sure but these are my favorite places to hike and bike and they are not the typical tourist places that everyone goes to.
        Pick up bear spray if you are hiking long trails.

          Oh wow, didn’t expect so much feedback. I will certainly check out all the recommendations.
          We can’t wait to visit Canada. It has always been a dream.

            Don't have much to add other than Victoria Island is a wonderful place. Lots of fun and delicious things in Victoria, Red fish Blue fish in the harbor for fish tacos, get a pickleboat ride in the harbor, grab a beer from Phillips Brewing (Blue Buck in particular!), recall having a great/simple meal on a fantastic patio at Ferris', and then just drive up the coast anywhere and wander on the beaches. I think Viberg has a shop there but recall hearing they never have much in stock.

                    TJ is such a good dude. I haven't been to his new location yet, but next time i'm over in Vancouver I'm planning too. We live in Van not too far from his old shop, but moved to Victoria 9 years ago.

                      @mr_showclass The new shop looks nice, although the location in general is borderline…

                        @Dmart haha, yeah. I worked in the Downtown Eastside for many years when I live in Vancouver, and lived just outside of it. It's a hard one for sure, lot's of issues.

                          If you’re spending any time in Vancouver, take a float plane up to Tofino and spend a night at the tip of the island in the Old Growth forest. If you love nature and the outdoors, this is like a spiritual awakening.
