I had no idea this trail existed - just discovered this video while planning a West Coast Trail trip with my family - maybe this trail is a better alternative for a family with kids.
Good video. We did China Beach to Sombrio last weekend but couldn't finish because we didn't have enough time. How long was the hike from Sombrio to Payzant? It looks like it was dark when you got there but it would have been just a 12 or 13 km hike (rated moderate). Did you get a late start? It would be helpful to know because we're going to go back to finish the hike. Thanks!
Nice video. I went to juan de fuca a month ago with my school we started hiking 9km before chinn beach, camped there for a night and then hiked to sombrio beach the next day.

Bring lots of quick snack food (ie. trail mix). Be prepared for rain. Start early in the day to get the best camp sites.

The song is by Daniel Wesley, he's from Vancouver. I highly recommend any of his music!
