The Hiking Group enjoyed a sterling day on April 1st, following a new route taking in the East side of Puntledge River and lands adjoining Comox Lake (check the last photos below, which show our route details). Bill Jorgensen was our hike leader today, enthusiastically pointing out new sights and interesting features of the landscape. We were all quite taken aback and very impressed with the low level of water in Comox Lake. Wow - we'd better get some serious rain soon or we will be really cut back on water usage during the summer! Our lunch break was located on a lower bluff in the Comox Lake Bluff area, where we had a lovely view of the Glacier above the end of the Lake. Blue skies rounded out the panorama, enjoyed by all. On our return route, we visited a large Douglas Fir, where it took 5 of us plus a long stick representing a sixth person to link up around the tree - a good size indeed!
The outing ended with a debrief at Mudsharks café.
