Some very exciting events happening at the Lynn Canyon Ecology Centre!
New Events at the Ecology Centre
A Snow Covered Suspension Bridge
North Vancouver received a beautiful light snowfall early this morning which gave a nice white coat to the trees in Lynn Canyon Park. The Suspension Bridge in Lynn Canyon Park is a perfect place to take in a breathtaking view of snow covered trees but do take care as the bridge can be slippery after a snowfall. There’s bound to be more beautiful scenery just like this throughout the North Shore all week.
