Next Hike

The next hike will be on Saturday, 23rd October.
We meet at the Ballpark in Gillies Bay at 10:00am.

For the hike last Saturday we drove down the much improved road to Pocahontas Bay and parked near the start of the rough road up to the radio towers on Pocahontas. The day proved to be a good one for mushroom pickers and I even collected a few very large fresh Shaggy Manes. The hike took us off on the first side road to the south and then, climbing steadily up through an extensive and fairly recent clearcut, we eventually reached the lunchspot on a narrow ridge with fine views towards the mainland. In my photo Harwood Island is in the middle with Savary just visible beyond.
