We meet at the Ballpark in Gillies Bay at 10:00am.
Last Saturday we had a larger than usual group of hikers including a couple from a small seaside town near Edinburgh on the east coast of Scotland. The weather was perfect for hiking and we headed up past the Vancouver Island hydro lines to park at the usual spot on the pipeline right of way. Walking south then through the forest to the other Bobs Lake road we headed for the best high elevation viewpoint ahead on the very top of Mt. Davies. It was too hazy to see as far as Mt. Baker, but the coast ranges on the mainland and the Vancouver Island mountains were quite visible and the visitors were suitably impressed. My photo is of the hikers after the lunch break on the summit was over.

Hello there! Thank you John and all for a fantastic hike. Great company and fantastic views. You helped make our stay on Texada even more memorable. Hope you are having some great hikes guys. We're back in Scotland now, hoping to get a cliff walk soon. Thank you! Sue and Ali
