A local (and very accessible) favourite outcrop of the mid crust here:

And for the structural enthusiasts - the mid crust is quite unique, where outcrops can display both massive to gneissic fabrics on a m-scale, of course my favourite being the massive outcrops with mingling textures.

We show the exposed mid, upper and volcanic units of the Bonanza arc are not all age equivalent. And most interestingly, the middle stage of the arc (195 – 180 Ma) is only preserved as mid crust with no volcanic equivalent, documenting not all phases of arc construction erupt.

New(ish) paper out earlier this month with Dante Canil documenting new U-Pb geochronology, bulk rock geochemistry, and field relationships of the Jurassic Bonanza arc on Vancouver Island, Canada:.
