This was our first return to the Quinsam River from Beaver Lodge Forest since our exploratory hike about a year ago. This hike started on the Rail Trail in the Beaver Lodge Forest in Campbell River. From there we made our way across the Inland Island Highway to mountain bike trails that took us along the top of the Quinsam River valley. Most of the walk from Beaver Lodge to the river was on an interesting single track trail through new and mature forest, with some short stretches on logging roads. The trail above the river, called Road Apples offered great views of the Quinsam below. After hiking 15 km everyone convened at the Rip Tide Pub for a debrief.
