Campbell River is a coastal city in British Columbia on the east coast of Vancouver Island at the south end of Discovery Passage, which lies along the important coastal Inside Passage shipping route. Campbell River claims a population (2006 census) of 32,000 and has long been touted as "the Salmon Capital of the World".
The town is served by an airport (YBL), a seaplane base called YHH at Campbell River Harbour, a BC Ferries route to Quadra Island, and highways which connect it to neighbouring towns such as Courtenay, The Village of Sayward, Gold River, Port McNeill and Port Hardy.

August
August 7 to 9 at Nunns Creek Park 16th Ave. Campbell River, B.C. Canada. The loggers are coming to chop and buck. They've honed their tools and hope for luck. As they race against the timers clocks. With saws and axes to cut the blocks. And some will try to take first place. In the axe throw and choker race. Others will climb the spars to the top. Or try to do the springboard chop. With power saws they'll add some flare. As they try and carve a wooden chair. So come and see them give it a go. At the 2009 Logger Sports Show.
