We meet at the Ballpark in Gillies Bay at 10:00am
Last week at the start of the hike the weather was still and on the dull side with low clouds covering the high ground. There was not much point going in search of high viewpoints on a day like this so instead we chose to hike in the forest along logging roads, new and old. We parked at the top of the first hill on Davie Bay Road and headed north back towards Mouat Creek on a side road then turned west followed the south bank back towards the main road. When it came time for lunch we were close to the road bridge and sat beside the creek at the fish tank hut. Such a pleasant spot with the sound of the water splashing over the rocks and the massive fern and moss covered maple trees towering above us.
Another mushroom photo for this week, not an edible variety, but of interest for the striking purple gills on the underside of the cap.

An unusual mushroom with purple gills growing on the hillside above Stromberg Falls. I believe it's not edible
