Next Hike

The next hike will be on Saturday 11th December.

We meet at the Ballpark in Gillies Bay at 10:00am

Last week we had a shorter hike than usual, but a very lovely day and a great improvement from the dull and rainy days that came earlier. We drove part way to Davie Bay and then hiked from the highway down through a plantation of young pine and fir, a patch of alder wood with stinging nettles and into an area near the shoreline with evergreen huckleberry under some larger trees. It was too early for lunch when we reached the clifftop so we backtracked and then made our way slowly down an overgrown trail to the beach. My photo shows the spot where we had lunch and spent a pleasant time looking for the interesting water smoothed rocks that seem more colourful than usual just here.
