Next Hike

The next hike will be on Saturday, 11th February.
We meet at the Ballpark in Gillies Bay at 10:00am.

Last week we hiked on the high ground to get above the sea fog which was very thick when we met at the Ballpark in Gillies Bay.  We parked near Second Lake and did the long circular hike that includes the Hydro Reactor Station, a section of the Vancouver Island power line right of way and a section of Thompson Road. At lunch time we were at the highest point under the wires enjoying the warm sunshine and looking out over the sea of fog that extended all the way to Vancouver Island's snow covered mountains.

The photo was taken on one of the hikes last month when we hiked to the cabins on Shingle Beach. On the way back it was fun for some of us to climb on the giant tree stump that has been stranded on the beach there for several years.
