I was out for a hike and photos with Boyd McLaren. Boyd and his wife are visiting the area and us for a few weeks. I took him to the big city, Nanaimo, and we wandered through Colliery Dam Park, starting at the lower parking lot and working our way up to the highway and the culvert with graffiti. A local who likely lives in the woods mentioned that there was water in the falls, "Best since before summer". We made our way to the falls and wandered back after both getting a lot of photos
