Awesome is the only word that comes to mind when I think of the islands, fjords and mountains that we cruised through on my one day journey along the central coast of BC. Coastal British Columbia facts: Because of its many deep inlets and complicated island shorelines (40,000 islands of varying sizes, including Vancouver Island and the Queen Charlotte Islands) the total length of the British Columbia Coast is over 27,000 kilometres (17,000mi). The dominant landforms of the BC Coast are the Insular Mountains, comprising most of Vancouver Island and the Queen Charlotte Islands, and the Coast Mountains, which extend beyond into Alaska and the Yukon. The coastline's geography is most comparable to that of Norway with its heavily-indented coastline of fjords, a landscape also found in southern Chile. ~ Wikipedia
