The Next Hike

The next hike will be on Saturday, 7th February.
We meet at the Ballpark in Gillies Bay at 10:00am

Last week we had perfect weather for a hike once we had driven nearly to Bobs Lake and got above the thick blanket of fog that covered the lower terrain.  We took a route that avoided the main logging roads and enjoyed the grassy lanes through the forest. Heading south towards Angel Lake, but then turning west along a road that we used once or twice until the beaver added to the height of their dam on Gentian Lake and flooded a short section of the road.  We could not cross without wading, but it was a pleasant spot to have lunch.  The dogs thought it great fun when work started on a rock and logs causeway for the next time we head down this old road.  It is quite a long one and eventually joins the Cook Bay Road, but I believe it may be badly overgrown in some sections. 
JD. 

Gentian Lake has a ford towards the south end and a log causeway will be needed to cross dry-shod.
