Next Hike

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

Last week we had very pleasant spring weather for our hike which started from a junction on the road from Pocahontas Bay up to the radio towers on Mt. Pocahontas.  Mostly hiking through forest we eventually reached Bladderwort Lake just beyond the watershed divide where the creeks flowing north run down to the east coast of Texada, and the outflow from the lake flows south and west to Mouat Bay.  An old Trekkers trail took us to a viewpoint high above the lake where we could look west towards Hornby Island.  On the return along the same route after lunch Tom Scott took a photo of the creek splashing down through the forest over moss covered rocks and that is our photo of the week.  Thanks Tom.
