Intermediate Hike Quirke #2 January 5

Commentary and photos by John B.


I led 10 hikers on Thursday to the Quirke #2 mine site off Panel Mine Rd.
The snow was deep enough that you needed snowshoes for this outing. We saw numerous animal tracks, rabbit and Lynx mainly, and were followed by 4 Whiskey Jacks for part of the way. Under perfect conditions we had lunch over looking Quirke Lake.
