The next hike will be on Saturday, 2nd April.
We meet at the Ballpark in Gillies Bay.
Last week we hiked from the Cook Bay Road uphill past Gentian Lake and beyond to the beaver pond on the Anderson Bay Road. It was a lovely sunny day, quite mild and with just the odd patch of snow on the ground here and there at the highest elevations. On the return after lunch we twice saw Cutthroat Trout actively spawning in ting creeks feeding small lakes and ponds.
My photo today is from a recent midweek hike to Limekiln Bay. It shows a curious circular native fish trap which seems to be rare on Texada as I have only seen them on this particular beach.
I am birdwatching on Vancouver Island for a couple of weeks. Russ will be the guide this Saturday.
