NEWS: Wild Whales Observer Profile: Serge Pare
Mar 3, 2009
Twenty-five miles north of Prince Rupert stands the northernmost lightstation in British Columbia, the Green Island Light. One of only 27 lightstations still staffed today in the Canadian Pacific, it is located in the isolated and wind-battered Chatham Sound. For the past 14 years, Serge Pare has been the principal keeper, ensuring the light remains bright, recording important weather data, and maintaining the station. Twelve years ago he added another duty to his day: observer for the BC Cetacean Sightings Network.
