Next Hike

The next hike will be on Saturday, 2nd November.

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

Last week and as you can see from the photo below we had a near perfect day for hiking. It was not difficult to decide on a suitable hike and the choice of doing a very recently completed route on the south slopes of Mt. Davies was popular with those who had done it before.  It starts and finishes on parts of a couple of our old trails that meander through the forest on the upper slopes of Mt. Davies, but in between it follows a winding route that drops quite steeply down and visits three small bluffs, the Uno2trois Bluffs, that offer the most spectacular views out to the west to the long range of mountains on Vancouver Island in the far distance.  That low island in front of the mountains on the left in the picture is Hornby.
