Okay, not quite, but they're getting close. Less than 160 days to go until the Vancouver-Whistler 2010 games begin. The Olympic torch is now making its way across Canada. It started in Victoria, British Columbia on Friday and is working its way north on Vancouver Island, including a stop in Tofino where it caught some surf. Check out what must be the first time the Olympic flame has caught a wave.
It's a fitting place for the torch to go in BC. This is a wild and diverse province. Sticking to the pavement isn't really BC's style and nor should it be yours if you're visiting here. Many of the coolest places are off the beaten path. So if you're coming for the games or in the afterglow set aside some time for checking out the backcountry. Here's a handy travel guide to help you find tourism businesses where you want to go, or operators who do what you want to do.
If you want to make like the torch, Tatchu Surf Adventures is a good bet for finding remote surf spots around Vancouver Island.
