history as the social hub of life in Desolation Sound. First settled in 1913, the cove quickly became a popular settlement and a school opened a year later, followed by the first incarnation of the current store and post office in five years later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Settlers would sell their excess fruits and vegetables through the store, and on Saturday nights people from miles around would converge on the dance hall through the 1920s and 1930s to dance and socialize. In the 1950s, the Cove had a population of 40 to 50 people living on boats, floathouses and cottages on the shore. Lewis Channel was the safest passage for most marine traffic north and south, and the Refuge Cove store was an important stop-over on this route. However, with the dynamiting of \u2018Ripple Rock\u2019 outside Campbell River in the largest man-made non-nuclear explosion in history in 1958, vessels preferred the route closer to Vancouver Island and most of the traffic ceased.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By 1971, the year-round population of Refuge Cove had slumped to just six.<\/p>\n<cite><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bcseakayak.com\/refuge-cove\/\">REFUGE
