Six SKABC members launched from Mayne Island on a kayak trip to Prevost on Friday. On Saturday, the Resource Management Officer and Ecology team of Gulf Islands National Park Reserve of Canada (Eleanor, Pipp and Zach) joined us. They gave us a brief Inservice on the best practices for removing Scotch Broom. This was SKABC Conservation’s first collaboration with the Gulf Island Reserve. We focused on the bluff for tents near the meadow removing 10 feet by 80 feet swath of Scotch Broom. The Ecology team appreciated our initiative and expressed their desire to collaborate again next year. Sunday morning’s windy conditions prompted us to wait until the winds subsided before the short paddle to Salt Spring Island.
