            This article is pretty self-explanatory when it comes to its summary; it’s the author’s 10 favorite outdoor activities to do in Vancouver. The activities vary from kayaking, hiking, snowboarding, camping and scuba diving. It goes into detail about the best places in Vancouver to do these things so it’s very helpful for tourists and gives you a better sense on what it will be like. It summarizes each activity in a short and sweet paragraph, telling you about the location, the time of the year you should go and addresses other frequently asked questions. The reason I chose the article is because I have always wanted to live in Vancouver so learning about the outdoor activities you can do there really interested me.

            Overall, the article was fairly informative, however, I felt as though it could have gone more in-depth in it’s explanation of each activity and key locations around the city. It did a good job of providing basic information on each activity and ranking them, but it was still lacking substance overall. The article was very bare and to the point, which made it short and sweet but if you were looking for lots of information I wouldn’t recommend using it as a reputable source. It definitely made me want to move to Vancouver even more, the amount of activities that are available there is crazy. I love the variety of things to do there and it seems like a very exciting life to lead.
