Location: Whytecliff Park, West Vancouver (Near Horseshoe Bay)


Time of Year: May 3, 2009


Other Info: Park has quiet a bit to offer with hiking trails, Island off shore that is accessible by a rock scramble path, and a beach. The Island that is located offshore, I figure through deduction, was once connected to the mainland. Striations mark up the mass of granite, which has a higher resistance to erosional forces than the rock that connected it to the mainland. The rock on the island has been smoothed thanks to processes of erosion wind, water and ice.
