More daylight has arrived this week in the form of our Spring time change… PDT rocks. Also this week my four week hibernation from Wednesday hiking has come to an end with a spicy variation on the standard Cedar Hill Golf Course loop. I guess [...]
Ahhh, it felt good today to get out for a hike. While I was out and about yesterday in downtown Vic I found myself thinking that it was looking a bit brown around town, kind of like how places look in the more wintry parts [...]
We headed out to Colwood today for a short hike at Mill Hill. For the first part of the drive / crawl out to Colwood there were thoughts of Goldstream or Mt. Wells, but then I remembered as we passed Thetis Lake that I had [...]
I think I read a headline in a newspaper today that read something like Spring is in the air. I guess I would sort of agree. The last few days have had that combination of sensory inputs that, for me anyway, evoke thoughts of Spring. [...]
We did a pretty fun hike at Mt. Doug tonight. There’s something about more difficult hikes, bike rides, runs, etc. that seem to make them a bit more memorable. Admittedly, there are harder things to do than a 5km hike in the dark, but there [...]
Note to self, be careful where you park in the winter. Did a good hike tonight at Bear Hill; there was a bit of Elk Lake trail as well… the water is pretty high right now… rain, rain, rain. Bear Hill is not gigantic, but [...]
Kind of nice tonight following some snow yesterday; some remnants could still be seen around the grounds of Royal Roads. Since it was just two of us hiking tonight (Michelle and I) we decided to cut this outing a bit short. I guess we were [...]
A bit of a lazy day today. Well I guess I did do a blog post earlier. This afternoon Michelle and I headed out to Witty’s Lagoon for a walk/hike. For whatever reason, I have not been to this spot before, not sure why. Further [...]
The hike tonight was a mix of pavement, short sections of trail, and good deal of rain. We ended up doing a little less distance than I originally planned, but that’s ok… it was soggy. Don’t get me wrong, soggy isn’t too bad, it’s a [...]
Went out for a nice hike today near Tod Inlet, a particularly well-sheltered body of water on the west side of the Saanich Peninsula. It’s close to Butchart Gardens. There have been clear skies and cool temperatures here lately and today was no exception. In [...]
A strange lull in the weather tonight… calm with sort of clear skies. Lately it’s been windy with lots of precipitation; no actual cats and dogs though. A few of us headed out to Thetis Lake this evening for a lap around the lake(s), also [...]
After some mild schnoz freezing and some other snow-related hijinks yesterday at Mt. Washington today was a return to a more typical south-island activity… hiking. The destination for the hike was East Sooke Park, which, as usual did not disappoint. From the way the day [...]
