Next Hike

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

Last week we had a lovely dry sunny day for our hike and picked one of the more popular hiking trails taking us to the summit of Mt.Davies for the lunch spot and the great views on a cloudless day.  It's the last week in February and yet the mountain peaks close to the coast are quite bare of snow and even in the far distance the snow line is clearly much higher than one would expect it to be in mid-winter.  We have had lots of precipitation this year, but always with unusually high air temperatures.  On some days in January and February the daily highs were all time records for those days of the month at the Powell River Airport weather station.
