Wednesday Hike – UVic / Henderson Park – Victoria, BC

Wednesday Hike – UVic / Henderson Park – Victoria, BC

May 26, 2010:

Summer is coming right? Apparently it’s hot elsewhere in the country; I guess maybe it’s a balance thing, i.e. it needs to be cool here if it’s hot somewhere else. Oh well, enough moaning about the weather – hiking is good in pretty much anything. [...]

Wednesday Hike – Beacon Hill Park / Holland Point Park – Victoria, BC

May 19, 2010:

Bad weather was in the forecast for tonight, but it was all good for an hour and a bit while we hiked around parts of Beacon Hill Park and Holland Point Park. It’s been a while since I did a hike in jeans with a [...]

Wednesday Hike – Mt. Wells – Victoria, BC

Wednesday Hike – Mt. Wells – Victoria, BC

May 12, 2010:

It has been many months since I last visited Mt. Wells. Tonight my Wednesday hike cohorts and I headed up the mountain, if you can call it that, for some fine views and I guess a workout. No, I’m not talking about boot camp at [...]

Wednesday Hike – Durrance Lake / McKenzie Bight – Victoria, BC

Wednesday Hike – Durrance Lake / McKenzie Bight – Victoria, BC

May 5, 2010:

I talk big, but don’t back it up with action. Prior to tonight’s hike at Durrance Lake and McKenzie Bight I had mentioned to others that our post-hike activities might/should include ice cream or pepperoni from the Red Barn Market – big talk indeed. Action, [...]

Wednesday Hike – Mt. Douglas – Victoria, BC

April 28, 2010:

We had a nice sunny day here in Victoria, which led to a nice sunny Wednesday night hike. Well not entirely, as part of the hike was spent on the dark side of Mt. Doug where tall trees and the hill itself makes for a [...]

Wednesday Hike – Swan Lake / Christmas Hill – Victoria, BC

Wednesday Hike – Swan Lake / Christmas Hill – Victoria, BC

April 14, 2010:

You’d think I’d get sick of blabbing about how it sure feels like Spring/Summer. Well I guess not, tonight was a great night for a hike with abundant Springish greenery on display. Starting from the Dorfmart (aka Walmart) parking lot we did a short stint [...]

Wednesday Hike – Gowlland Tod Park – Victoria, BC

Wednesday Hike – Gowlland Tod Park – Victoria, BC

April 7, 2010:

Another Wednesday is in the books and unlike the last one a hike did occur. This week’s destination (south end of Gowlland Tod Provincial Park) was a little further out of town than most of the Wednesday hikes I’ve been on over the last eight [...]

Hike – Francis King Park – Victoria, BC

Hike – Francis King Park – Victoria, BC

April 4, 2010:

In my last blog post I mentioned a pre-turkey feast hike. This time I shall describe the day’s pre-ham hike. I really should have sucked it up and gone for a bike ride today, but alas I did not. Does it count that I thought [...]

Hike – Gowlland Tod – Victoria, BC

Hike – Gowlland Tod – Victoria, BC

April 2, 2010:

Easter weekend has arrived… the first long weekend of the year. Amongst various other things on the slate for this weekend I’m going to try, as usual, to get outside and do some outside-type stuff according to my wants and desires. Today, prior to some [...]

Wednesday Hike – Francis King Park – Victoria, BC

Wednesday Hike – Francis King Park – Victoria, BC

March 24, 2010:

Hot damn, says I with an attempt at a southern drawl. Why, you ask? No reason, I respond, other than the fact that the temperature for this week’s Wednesday night hike was noticeably warmer than in previous weeks. With mild trepidation, I suggested Francis King [...]
