Next Hike

The next hike will be on Saturday, 28th December.
We meet at the Ballpark in Gillies Bay at 10:00am.

Last week we had a fairly nice day weatherwise and chose to take a route that starts part way down the Cook Bay Road that we had worked on, mostly just flagging, last summer when we visited for the first time the lake we now call Never-been-to-before Lake. Our lunch spot was a small bluff which is high above the lake  and it does have a spectacular view of Lasqueti and Vancouver Island, but this time there was too just much low cloud for the view which we had seen on earlier visits. 
The photo this week was taken when we descended the steep trail going down at the base of a cliff face below the bluffs.   This entire area is open forest and really delightful to wander through at just about any time of the year.

Next Hike

The next hike will be on Saturday, 21st December.
We meet at the Ballpark in Gillies Bay at 10:00am

Last week the hikers met in Van Anda and drove along Crescent Bay road to hike on Woodwardia at the invitation of James Mack the owner.  This part of Texada has a large area of undisturbed forest and a stretch of rugged coastline that is important habitat for several species of marine animals large and small. I was busy all day with counting birds as part of the international annual Christmas Bird Count so I was not able to participate in the hike this time.  The route followed was a circular one that climbed quite steeply to the high point of land directly east of Favada Point on the coast and then south down through a fairly rugged area of forest back to the start point close to sea-level.

Next hike from Van Anda

The next hike will be on Saturday, 14th December.
This time we meet at the Canadian Legion in Van Anda.

This week the hike may be all or partly on private land and any dogs on the hike MUST be on a leash at all times.

Last week we hiked on the new trails near the Shingle Beach campground and sat for lunch on the beach logs. We were lucky to have no rain while we were walking, but in the forest we did run into some especially muddy areas where water seepage was very much what a kind of fairly primitive plant called liverwort requires.  There are a small number of different species on Texada and the one I photographed is quite eye-catching.  We did manage to find a few edible mushrooms although we are getting towards the end of the collecting season and I doubt there will be many left this weekend.

Next Hike

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

There are two different ways of getting to the viewpoint on Thompson Bluffs.  One route starts from First Lake on Bell Road and runs entirely through forest along very old logging roads and narrow winding trails and passing Mystery Lake along the way.  The other route, the one we used last Saturday, starts from a parking spot on the logging road running uphill from Eagle Creek on the Davie Bay Road to join Thompson Road some way north of the bluffs. It felt rather cool when we started walking, but on this route there is a good deal of elevation gain so we were all nicely warmed up by the time we reached the lunch spot.
