A long article in The Guardian on how the island of Haida Gwaii along the northern coast of British Columbia managed to turn resistance to logging into a global success in nature and culture preservation. Our original holiday plans last August were to spend half our time there. But the travel costs were alas such that we ended up in Prince Rupert, 100 km east across Hecate Strait. A mere seven-hour ferry crossing!
