It was pretty, but you can only stare at scenery so long. Also there really wasn't much to do with the nature. The ocean was too cold to swim in (got to about 10 degrees in the "heat" of the summer) there were a few small over priced ski hills and a few place to kayak for the few months you could, but it wasn't like Banff or any of the places in the Rockies that made up for being small with TONS of outdoor stuff to do.

"We submit to the majority because we have to. But we are not compelled to call our attitude of subjection a posture of respect." Ambrose Bierce
