Mount McBean

A beautiful clear day for the hike to Mt McBean last Thursday, 16 Oct. We car-pooled 15 to the trail head and found the trail markers had deteriorated over the past year. We took a wrong turn or two, but eventually found our way to the top of the east peak and the panoramic views of the North Ch over to Manitoulin Isl. Thx to "B" John and Scott for the pics.

Can you guess who picked up the snake? No, not Chuck! Clue: She's dead scared of spiders.
