British Columbia From Coast to Capital and Vancouver Lore
British Columbia sits far west in Canada with the Yukon to the north claiming greater western reach. The province, about three quarters of a million people, is not densely settled and is famed as the Switzerland of America for its mountains. Vancouver is both a city and an island name, honoring explorer George Vancouver who first circumnavigated Vancouver Island. Victoria, the capital, is noted for a mild climate and mid winter blooms thanks to the Japan current. The coastal region has ample rainfall and little snow, while Vancouver Island is part of a mountain range that sinks beneath the sea.
