Banana Lake 2026 11 14

David led 8 out to Dunlop shores and up the ATV trail towards Banana Lake.

Cool in the parking, we all had hats, happy to get moving up the hill along the atv trail.. making the turn to the side trail we skirted puddles and moved a very few branches to proceed to the turn for Liz's Trail.

Anecdotes finished, we traipsed down Liz's trail towards the lake... Don took an ill hiker back as the rest of us forged on.

Up the last rise to the turn for the bench, rest, water and viewing were the order of the day..

The big nest was admired and several trees identified.. and we were off for home.

Renee swept and kept us all in check.. Walter is back in town, two newly joined keen hikers came along, thanks for coming out to all..

Weather was good for hiking. No sweating and no bugs!

Golf Course Birdie Loop 2026 11 12

Astrid led 6 of us out to the golf course and on to the Birdie Trail. Leaf covered but fairly clear other than a few step over logs.

We slid around the end of the pond, rock stepped across the creek and completed the circle..

Cold wind when we started but by the time we got back to the fairways it had warned nicely... the odd flake of snow but sunny on the return.

One lonely crow. Live oak leaf. Good company even if 2/3 were ELATE. All 6 back for coffee. A great afternoon!

Slipper and Esten Lake Wrecks 2026 10 30

Slipper and Esten Lake Wrecks -  No rain so it was 6 hikers who wandered the hills looking at rusted, historic automobiles.  First to the "Valley of the Cars" then bushwack to the Slipper Lake lookout.  Then on to the "Pink Trail", newly marked, for a long slog to 3 wrecks.  Lunch was at Esten Beach and the sun was shining by then.  A bonus wreck was seen outside the day care centre on the way back so 10 wrecks in all.  The
remaining 2 wrecks will be a good excuse for a future hike.
