VANCOUVER --
Dotted with kayakers, paddle boarders and the occasional luxury yacht, Deep Cove is an adventure-lover’s paradise, and there’s no better place to take it all in than from high above on Quarry Rock.
But the District of North Vancouver closed the popular hiking trail in March of last year because it would be nearly impossible to physically distance on the normally crowded route.
"Just before we closed it, we had three to four thousand visitors a day going to Quarry Rock on a sunny weekend,” said North Van District councillor Lisa Muri. “So there's no possibility of social distancing with those numbers."
