Accident, G.V.R.D., W.B.P.S., Wreck Beach

The Point Grey Scar cliffs are continually eroding. 

That’s why they are called “feeder cliffs,” because they supply the beaches below with continual supplies of Quadra sands.

Recently, a young camper was killed when a landslide trapped him inside his tent and buried him alive.

This young lady on the out-of-bounds trail reportedly sustained a broken collarbone although RCMP would not confirm the extent of her injuries. 

She was released from hospital Saturday, April 9, the same night she was injured.
