Soon you break through to the summit, and leave the aroma of Wild Rose and Wild Strawberry behind. Wind through dense tangles of Salal, and stands of Douglas-fir and Arbutus, to the edge of Mount Norman. The views of surrounding islands and waters, fading into a blue horizon, are unsurpassed. This is what you've been heading for. This is why Mount Norman has been preserved just for you.
Fire is a serious concern in many island communities, especially during dry summer months.
A fire on Mount Norman, once started, would be difficult to control. Fires are prohibited in the park. Smokers, please carry your cigarette butts and matches out.
