Next Hike

The next hike will be on Saturday, 15th March.

We meet at the Ballpark in Gillies Bay at 10:00am.

Last week we had, yet again, a rainy day for the hike and this coming Saturday the forecast is for another day of rain.  We decided to do the hike down to Shingle Beach as this gives us places in the Diversity Music Festival bandstands to stay dry while we eat lunch.  Before starting the hike proper we made a side trip to see if the earlier rains would reward us with a fine show at Stromberg Falls. and this plan worked out really well.  I think the volume of water coming down over the falls that day was more than I have seen for several years. It never fails to impress me that such a small creek can produce such a massive torrent of water and spray down a sixty foot cliff.
