A few drops of rain, but not enough to hold us back. Eleven of us covered about 6 Km down through Manley Park and Satellite Pk Rd. The tide was in enough so we didn't try the beach route. Map and photos below. -- DeNNis.
 |
| Parked the cars at the entrance to Manley Park below Arbutus Ridge. Walked down to the beach, but the tide was in enough that we didn't try that route. So back up to the Granfield trail where we did a clockwise loop around Aros Rd and Satellite Pk Rd and back to the cars. We finished off our walk with coffee at the "Olde School Cafe". |
