Another hot day - good one for a new (?) 5Km walk. Around the Quarry in the reverse direction. Ten of us headed out and 10 finished. Finished with refreshments at Shawnigan Coffee House. Map and photos below. -- DeNNis.
 |
| Parked the cars near the entrance to Burnham Park (bottom right). Follow the trace in a counter-clockwise loop. For some reason the GPS showed a double trace along the Bamberton-Haul Rd. |
 |
| Not a cloud in sight - just the remnant of a chem-trail. |
 |
The old stone oven on the northeast end of the Quarry. I was
told the farmers used it to cook lime for their fields.
|
 |
| Checking out the old stone oven. Good excuse for a break in the shade. |
 |
| A couple views of the Quarry. |
 |
| A big old Arbutus tree above the Quarry. |
 |
| A good lookout point. |
 |
| The northeast end of the Quarry. |
 |
Down the slippery slope. Large rocks block ATV's
from using the trails.
|
 |
| Somebodys puppy cooling off. |
 |
| Back down the Bamberton-Haul Road to the cars. |
 |
| The final obstacle - through or over the gate. |
