Wherever one might be on the Lower Mainland of BC the North Shore mountains are always visible and makes an imposing impression on local residents and visitors alike. It is the setting against which the city of Vancouver is viewed. It is an example of the observation that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. The North Shore injects drama into the Vancouver landscape. Only minutes away across one of the two bridges (Lions Gate and Second Narrows), beyond the fringe of development within two to three kilometers of the waters edge lies a huge expanse of wilderness that can be a challenge to even the most fit to explore. Vancouver is the economic engine of the region that drives the expanding population and increasing importance of tourism to all the surrounding communities. Between the two, the North Shore and Vancouver, they offer everyone the greatest range of recreational opportunities to be found, within proximity to a urban environment, in the world.
The images on view on this site are intended to provide an insight into what makes the North Shore and its components, the city and district of North Vancouver and the municipality of West Vancouver, so very special to the region.
