This past weekend I was briefly back within Hupačasath and Tseshaht territory (a.k.a. Port Alberni) collecting the last of my possessions I had stored there, before heading to Duncan to shoot one of the four films I’m currently in production on. While there, I miraculously found time to hike down to the nearby river with my cinematographer and encountered an answered prayer right before my eyes.

The last time I had been down to the river (a few months prior) and several times before, I’d wished for some sort of bridge or set of stepping stones in order to easily cross the water & continue exploring the trails on the other side. I’m not sure how it occurred, but there is now a massive build up of logs where a smaller pile had been before, with one in particular acting as a makeshift bridge.

We had fun scrambling across and had enough daylight to hike the entire trail on the other side, something I’d wanted to do for over a year when I first moved to Port Alberni in January 2025.

It was a beautiful way to officially close the chapter of my time spent living there. I’m off to explore new paths now.
