Next Hike

The next hike will be on Saturday, 3rd January.
We meet at the Ballpark in Gillies Bay at 10:00am

Last week we drove a short distance along the road to Davie Bay and hiked south along the old logging road that eventually rejoins the main road at the Eagle Creek culvert. Not walking quite that far we instead took the short side road down to the former community at the mouth of Eagle Creek.  I don't believe there are any permanent residents there now, but I do recall seeing people living there as long ago as the late sixties when Davie Bay had quite a large community of people who favoured the popular "back to nature" life style.  More recently several quite elaborate homes were built and lived in for many years.  We sat on the cliffs for lunch and enjoyed a day that turned out to be really quite pleasant from the weather point of view.
