In another of my ongoing series of catch up posts about previous Wednesday night hikes I thought I’d tell you about an excursion to Mt. Doug not long ago. It’s my opinion that Mt. Doug Park is just big enough that even if you go [...]
Aspen Extreme! Tonight’s hike at Mt. Doug involved a steeper climb to the top than our usual; nothing wrong with a bit more challenge than usual. The sky was pretty clear tonight so the views of the city and the mountains were pretty damn good. [...]
Mud needs love too you know. I say this because I have observed first-hand some notable dislike for the soupy brown stuff over the years. Maybe soupy and brown are mud’s main problem… what if it was soupy and pink and smelled like cotton candy, [...]
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 [...]
It was just Michelle and I for the Wednesday hike this week. I guess the less than spectacular weather scared off some of the other regulars:) Our route through the Doug was a bit different than usual and included one of the steeper routes to [...]
Well it’s now looking and feeling like summer here in Victoria. Temperature is a fairly good indicator, but what I notice the most are the conditions on the trails. When you’re in the middle of summer or early fall, it’s pretty dry here, and the [...]
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 [...]
This weekend was a weekend of dog-sitting for me. The beast in question, who shall remain nameless, and I did some walking/hiking and some lounging around, nothing too exciting. This particular beast is now a senior citizen in terms of dog years, so she is [...]
Wednesday night hiking is good. This week I did a loop around the base of Mt. Doug(las) with my work friends and some non-work friends. Hiking at night lacks the kind of sensory input associated with hiking in the daylight, but regardless, it is still [...]
Fullish moon tonight for the Wednesday hike. This fact would be some what irrelevant if the sky was not clear, but it was. The destination this week was Mt. Doug, or Douglas if you prefer. The “Doug” as I know it is a good spot [...]
