Walking the Elk Amble at the Creston Valley Wildlife Management area in Creston British Columbia
What the world needs is hope and healing one step at a time.
There are so many trails at the wildlife centre area in Creston and I've shown you almost all of them. This one is a good one any time of the year. The most exciting part of the day was when I saw otters not only swimming but they came onto the bank to eat! No matter where I hike (or walk) I see exciting stuff. So GET OUTSIDE!! So grateful there is no breast cancer concerns in my family, but my heart goes out to those who do. This video is just a little awareness of this serious affliction. I also discovered a new love, and that's vegan soy jerky!

Walking to Leach Lake at the Creston Valley Wildlife Management Area & talking about heartburn
What the world needs is hope and healing one step at a time.
I decided to do a health topic this time as it is something I'm passionate about. Seeing people come into the ER with health issues that are preventable makes me want to help educate in any way I can. There is a better, natural way sometimes than always taking a pill for every little ailment that one is plagued with. Diet is crucial to optimal health! This was filmed in 4K, hope you enjoy it as much as I did making it!

17,000 acre wetland habitat in southeastern BC, Canada
Established by Provincial Legislation in 1968 under the Creston Valley Wildlife Act, the Creston Valley Wildlife Management Area (CVWMA) consists of 7,000 hectares (17,000 acres) of provincial land. It contains one lake (1,500 ha or 3,700 acres) and 17 marshes plus a major river and adjoining mountain slopes. Located on the
Pacific Flyway, the marshes form a valuable link in a chain of wetlands stretching from the Arctic Ocean to California.
The CVWMA is a rich and biologically diverse area. Over 286 species of birds, 57 species of mammals and 29 species of fish, reptiles and amphibians call the area home. Some of these are species at risk - endangered, threatened, vulnerable or of special concern - at a provincial and/or federal level.
In 1994, it was designated as an internationally significant wetland (Ramsar Site). The CVWMA is also recognized as an Important Bird Area by Birdlife International, because it regularly supports over 100,000 water birds during migration periods, and as an Important Amphibian and Reptile Area by the Canadian Amphibian and Reptile Conservation Network .
The area is managed for conservation and natural species diversity through active habitat and wildlife management, research and education. The wetland is an important destination in the migration of Tundra Swans and Greater White-fronted Geese and a vast array of waterfowl.
Birdwatchers marvel at the 6 species of grebes, large numbers of Great Blue Herons, the rare Forsters Terns which breed no where else in BC and a thriving Osprey population.
The CVWMA attracts over 35,000 visitors per year from around the world. As part of the International Selkirk Loop and the Two Nation Birding Vacation, a birding and ecotourism experience, the CVWMA is a major destination and attraction for people traveling through southeastern BC. With an amazing diversity of wildlife, spectacular scenery, a bounty of recreational opportunities and a Wildlife Interpretation Centre offering educational programming and special events, the CVWMA is a truly unique and magical place to visit. The CVWMA was recently chosen as a 2009 Rand McNally Best of the Road® Editors Pick and featured in the 2009 Rand McNally Road Atlas.
The Wildlife Interpretation Centre, located 11 kilometers west of Creston on Hwy 3, is open May to October and offers a variety of programs and events. Visitors and students from BC, Alberta, Western USA and Europe make this wetland site and Interpretation Centre a destination for pleasure, education and conservation research. The
Centre offers a desirable visitor experience featuring:
guided field excursions (canoe & walking tours), experience-based curriculum-matched educational programs, educational exhibits, secure wildlife viewing decks & towers, science lab activities, lecture & video presentations, visitor services (washrooms, destination desk, tour operation, natural history gift shop, snack bar &
picnic shelter) and conference space.
Year round trail access to over 32 kilometers of trails allows visitors to access the area by hiking, biking, snowshoeing and cross-country skiing. Self-guided walking trails, covered multi level viewing towers and boardwalk trails provide the ideal means to explore the area.
The CVWMA is a not-for-profit provincial crown agency with charitable status and contributions are gratefully accepted to help us manage the area for wildlife and habitat as well as for recreational and educational uses.

British Columbia Elk Hunting
British Columbia elk hunting, a guided and outfitted hunt in British Columbia for elk. Produced by
The British Columbia Roosevelt Elk were introduced to the Sunshine Coast away from British Columbia in 1986. The herds have flourished ever since then and there are many substantial Roosevelt Elk that weigh in over one thousand pounds in weight.
Whether you favor bow hunting or rifle hunting, you're certain to appreciate the opportunities that British Columbia offers. You can choose from a land camp or even a boat camp and almost everything in the middle.
Guided hunts are also available from Fredlund Guide Service Inc with experienced outfitters. There are some remote hunts available as well as private land hunts.
Rifle season begins October 10th and officially ends on November 20th. Should you prefer archery, you'll wish to note that one could begin hunting October 1st through November 20th. The majority of the hunts are carried out from four wheel drive vehicles, four wheelers and via foot.
If you're from the USA, you'll need to make sure that you have all the proper regulations and permits. You'll require the tags and you'll be asked to pay for the royalties also. You can find more details through your local hunting outlet or from Fredlund Guide Service Inc.
Elk hunting can even be combined with other hunts to help you look for a number of different animals at the same time, provided that you get the proper permits and tags. If you're unsure check with the department of hunting and wildlife before you decide to step out to hunt. To learn more about elk hunts in British Columbia visit
