Twelve of us went "beach bushwhacking" today from Manley Park down to Satellite Park. The sky was clear and the sun was bright. Lots of photos and map below. -- DeNNis.

Parked the cars at the end of Ratcliffe Rd below Arbutus Ridge (bottom right). Down through Manley Park to the beach, over and under fallen trees, etc. most of the way down to the stairway up onto Satellite Park Rd. A little sightseeing along Aros Rd and then along the Grandfield pathway back to Manley Park and the cars. Finished up with a delicious lunch at Arbutus Ridge Bar & Grill which we thoroughly enjoyed after about 5 Km of walking.
