Regular visitor to this site, JoJo, asked yesterday how the trestle restoration had fixed the upper deck of the Kinsol Trestle. So, for you, JoJo, here is a photo of the deck that now covers the top of the trestle. And here's a bit of trivia - the name "Kinsol" was derived from the name of a nearby mine - King Solomon's Mine. Unfortunately the mine did not live up to its fabled namesake.

Situated on the far west coast of Canada, on the southern tip of Vancouver Island, Victoria is the capital city of the Province of British Columbia. Its benign climate (the warmest winters in Canada) and placid lifestyle make it a favorite retirement location as well as a popular tourist destination. About 400,000 people live in Victoria and adjacent communities.

Thank you so much for posting this! That's really cool with the wood path now and I had no idea there were any mines on Vancouver Island.
