Looking out into the Pacific from the end of a large surge channel along the west coast of Vancouver Island. No way around this one but to hike.

Beautiful west coast scene – have you hiked the Pacific Wild Trail near Ucluelet? Many vistas similar to your photo, inlet after inlet with an easy trail for carrying gear and multiple lookouts.

HI, you seemed to have hit the nail on the head as this was photo was actually taken on the wild pacific trail a few years back. Hope the day is a fine one.

As a former Geologist,I’ve noticed surge channels & studied them.A surge channel starts out as a crack in the rocks face.The waves over the years begin to erode this crack like a cavity.Forward many thousands of years & this crack has been eroded enough to produce a small channel.The channel will follow this crack .I’ve found caves large enough to fit several transport trucks in.The roof of this cave will eventually erode enough that it’ll cave in on it’s self,leaving a surge channel.
Don’t recognize this one ,but I’ll bet it’s off the Wild Pacific trail?
