In rough order of priority/completion: Gabriola’s late-Pleistocene early-Holocene geology Striations in the bedrock indicating the passage of glaciers from the northwest, Howe Sound, and the Nanaimo Lakes area on Vancouver Island; deposits of clay from weathered glacial flour; giant boulders as a result of plucking; evidence of an ice-cap on Gabriola in the Younger Dryas; whale bones and either a mastodon or woolly mammoth bone. It’s all a bit more complicated and interesting than I had imagined. Flea village in Desolation Sound Historical records and a successful search for the site.

Historical records and maybe a successful search for the site in Desolation Sound.
