Itinerary:

We will tour the single track mountain bike trails at Westpointe Ravine into West Terwillegar Park.

This walk is in a hidden gem ravine to the West that has a great river valley view.

If you have aspirations of doing the West Coast Trail, or any other rough terrain trails, particularly backpacking, please join me for this exploratory walk.

Anyone who is interested in this walk is welcome - you don't have to be training for anything. This will have a brisk pace of around 5 km/hour, and will be through rougher terrain.

Meet just North of this address: 4063 Whispering River Dr SW (I picked the house next to our trail-head) at 6:25 PM for a prompt departure at 6:30 PM (or earlier if the group's all there). Look for Mark wearing (or holding) a blue EOC ball cap, or look up his profile picture on the volunteer page.
