The trip from Victoria Harbour to the south end of Wallace Island was like entering a labyrinth. As the shadows began to shorten with the new day, we entered Haro Strait, turning north into Boundary Pass which narrows into Swanson Channel and eventually narrows again into Trincomali Channel. This little gem of tidal water separates Galliano Island from Salt Spring Island and hosts the history-rich Wallace Island, which was the focus of our day. The sun began to warm as we approached Panther Point at Wallace's southern end, and the calm seas signaled the start of an amazing day in the Canadian Gulf Islands.
