Weblog: Some pictures of Paradise Meadows/Forbidden Plateau
<< Previous Entry | Next Entry >>
Alexis and I went up to Strathcona Park to do some hiking. We started at the paradise meadows trailhead (by Mt Washington) and wanted to get to Mt Albert Edward, but there was too much snow and after a couple of hours of wandering around trying to find the trail, decided to head back and camp at Lake Helen Mackenzie. It was a lovely hike, even if we didn't get to our destination, and Zeke had a lot of fun in the snow. Afterwards, we headed over to Quadra Island (which had a different feel compared to the southern Gulf Islands) to visit a couple of folks from the cob workshop (no pics of Quadra Island, though I wish I had taken a picture of a great hex/octagonal house with a tower we drove by). Today we're back on Parker to get some caretaking work done, and tomorrow we head up to the Walbran for a few days.

This bird (and two of its friends/enemies) enjoyed eating our trail mix at the campsite.
