Hi, I'm Luke and I love exploring Canada's backyard. Chasing adventure, documenting abandoned places, climbing mountains, and soaking in hot springs is just a little of the videos you'll see here. I'm constantly working on several video projects, and upload as often as I can. I hope you enjoy and get outside!

Also here's my website for further info: www.anothersufferfest.com

If you have any questions, or are interested in the driftwood art I create, send an email at the address below!

    So cool, Luke. In from 1981 to late 1982 I worked in that area as forest engineer. at the time the caves were not in a park but the provincial + federal govt at the time were exploring major cave systems on the north island as part of the Quatsino Karst limestone formation. As I guided them from Huson to the Tsulton river near beaver cove (part of the same limestone formation) we found an animal tusk embedded in some limestone rock that had been dislodged by timber falling in preparation for road building. Afterwards I was told the govt geologists discovered some major cave systems in the area. The north island is remarkable and is truly the road less traveled

  • @lifeofluke
    @lifeofluke5 күн бұрын

    That's very cool, yeah I'd like to see more of the caves that exist on Vancouver island, as some are very infrequently visited I'm sure, there must be some incredible things to see. And the Island has the right rock and conditions for these caves to exist.

    Pretty awesome😁 I was definitely thinking of it as a tube ride! I've seen this cave shown on another channel, but they did not paddle through it. We just saw the one side. Nice job, Luke😀 That looked fun! Was the path back over to the other side easy enough?

  • @lifeofluke

    Thanks, yeah the trail back is not easy, it's a steep, rooty climb up from the river level through brush to reach the boardwalk/platform. We both did that return walk several times over.

    went there a few times in the 1980ies ..explored several other caves on the slope above the river including a sketchy thru cave thats long and very tight and has a submerged section certain times of year , its easy to get trapped in the submerged section even when its dry as rocks can snag on you gear and belt

  • @lifeofluke

    Yeah, part of me wanted to explore the small caves as well, not just the river one, but I have to say those tight squeeze passages do make me feel claustrophobic... I prefer the large cave openings and rooms.
