Next Hike

The next hike will be on Saturday, 30th August.
We meet at the Ballpark in Gillies Bay at 10:00am

Last week we had visitors so decided to take them to the Twin Peaks trail, a long drive and a fairly short steep hike with very fine views both to the east and west.  It was certainly good weather for hiking, but the view to the west was limited by a thick haze so nothing could be seen beyond the nearby Lasqueti Island. My photo shows that the view east was better, but still not great.  We thought the visibility might be partly reduced by the smoke of distant forest fires

Diana wishes me to mention that hikers are welcome to her house on Blair Road at the Oasis for tea and light refreshments after the hike this Saturday.

Lunching on the south summit of Twin Peaks.  The distant views of the mainland were not very clear due to a smoky looking haze.
