Where can I go back-country camping with my boyfriend for a night near Vancouver, BC?




decrivi


We want to go somewhere that we can just have a good time that's just in the back country. It's not a real legit thing. Just want to build a fire and spend some alone time together; we'll likely just sleep in the car.

Any suggestions?
Off course we would be careful with our campfire and would not ever think to leave it active whilst asleep, whether in a car or a tent!!



Answer
"Hi"......Please don't light fires in any other place but a regular supervised campground.........and sleeping in your car while comfortable doesn't really give you control of what the fire is doing.

I love my "big,green,beautiful, giganhumoungous back yard" to play in and request that it is treated with respect.

Just my gentle opinion.....(Michael C...)

Edit...glad to hear........Ok a suggestion....go to Porteau Cove (Yahoo it) it's on the way to Squamish and 30 mins from Vancouver and is excellent hardcore camping on the beach....good parking near it ( 300 feet ) and safe. It's kayak heaven just as an aside...*lol* I'd stay offroad ( unpaved) though if I were you if in just a car...it would be folly.l

Here's one of many links.....

Have fun ! *S*

Vancouver, things to do?

heading to vancouver in august, looking for things to do.
thinking of maybe taking a trip to whistler or doing an alaskan cruise? any suggestions?



Answer
If you like hiking or camping then I would suggest taking the ferry to Bowen Island/Nanaimo or Victoria. Beautiful scenery there. You can camp by the beach, hiking in the forest. Visit deserted Native grounds to learn a bit about their culture and what that place was like before.
Whistler of course is very nice too, you could take a Greyhound up there. Rent a hotel. Spend a couple of nights, hiking, exploring, dining out, shopping (souvenirs can pretty much be found anywhere).



I like visting Downtown Vancouver.

People cant stop walking in Downtown, it's just sooo filled with things to do.
A day in Downtown Vancouver would be like :
10AM - Eat breakfast in the Four seasons restaurant
12PM - Visit Pacific Center and shop
1PM - Eat Lunch (food court or near by restaurant, Red Robin, CinCin, Earls)
3PM - Walk to Stanley Park, walk or rent a bike to walk/bike by the port of Coal Harbour
4PM - Possibly visit the Aquarium (located in Stanley Park)
6PM - Walk up Denman, watch the sunset at Second Beach.
7PM- Have dinner at a near by restaurant, (Beachhouse, Sushi)
8PM - Start walking back to your hotel and see oh so many lights.
9PM - Stand and watch people walking by your window.
10PM - Dream, and wish for tomorrow to come so you can visit Granville Island, or metrotown, maybe catch a movie at Silver City or Scotia Bank Theather
