It has been months of work, but it is finally finished. This video really challenged me, but I am very happy with the result and I am so excited to share it with all of you.
This is Suquash BC, and it is one of the most undiscovered and forgotten sites I have ever explored. Our history here in Canada is not that old. It is also not very well documented, but rarely is it completely forgotten, but that is exactly what happened here. The northern end of Vancouver Island is rarely visited by anyone other than the locals, and I suppose it is just the perfect place for a historic city to become abandoned, and over 100 year become practically one with the forest again.
Since childhood I have dreamed of being the one to discover a long forgotten piece of history. This isn't quite that, but its definitely the closest I have felt. People do visit this site occasionally, but it seems they sure don't explore it.
There is a trail going past two of the ruins, and id say nearly 100% of the visitors don't leave this trail. You guys know that I spend most of my time exploring off of the trail, and that is why this place was so amazing to me. I found so much stuff buried under a thick layer of ferns and moss, and I'm sure there is still much more that hasn't been seen in a century, still waiting to be discovered. To many people, finding a brick, or a single wall isn't very exciting, but to me each artifact is a piece to a puzzle that gradually is built in my mind. I don't think I'll ever lose that child-like imagination, and I'm quite happy with that. If anything, it seems to be getting even stronger.
I sure hope you all enjoy this film, and I hope that it encourages you to get out and explore this beautiful world we have.
