Six of us walked about 8 km around Swan Lake Nature Park and then up onto Christmas Hill. Some low fog but mostly clear skies and NO rain. Finished up by meeting Brook, Bob, Denis L and Jim at the Carriage House Pub on Fort St for a brew and a nice lunch. -- DeNNis.

Had to add this because of the colouring. |
The new walk goes across the end of Swan Lake. |
A couple of ducks feeding. |
Some interesting bridges on parts of the trail. |
A unique tree growing several upright branches. |
Another neat bridge. |
Lots of water droplets on the bushes hanging on for life. |
Reflections. |
A portion of the old boardwalk. |
Crossing McKenzie Ave on the way up to Christmas Hill. |
Part of the stone walkway up Christmas Hill. |
Reaching the summit of Christmas Hill. |
360 degree views from the top. |
Something to see in all directions. |
Starting back down. |
Watch your step - the trail could be precarious. |
Some odd tree growth - especially the Arbutus. |
Looks like we are being watched as we descend. |
