Next Hike

The next hike will be on Saturday, 4th February.
We meet at the Ballpark in Gillies Bay at 10:00am.

Last week the group of Trekkers was smaller than usual even though the weather was not unpleasant.  We started our hike from Eagle Creek and headed towards the sea.  As an interesting diversion we took the side road that follows the creek down to the former community that existed for many years near the mouth of the creek.  Only one of the cottages is lived in now, but it was interesting to stand for a few minutes and enjoy the view of the rugged shoreline, the strait and the distant snow covered mountains of Vancouver Island.  Retracing our steps to the main logging road we continued on to our lunch spot on the beach at the south end of Mouat Bay.

The youngest hiker finding the rounded beach stones rather rough going.
