Tuesday morning I took a walk on the wild side of Mt. Tolmie. That be along some of the many undeveloped trails that crisscross the western column (West Col) of the mountain.
Many of the trails were unrecognizable to me while being overtaken with spring foliage.
The one kilometre loop chosen to walk was enervating but enjoyable in the early sunshine.
Thursday morning I walked a 2.5km loop up Merriman Trail and Down Whittaker Trail in Mt. Douglas Park.
And oh yes . . . there's VIDEO, too.
“From a little acorn the mighty oak tree grows.” — Mrs. Beale, 1945, my grade four teacher wrote in my autograph book. She was right. ☺
Some often wonder when out walking — what's over the next hill?
I wonder what's on top the steep cliffs while walking along Vancouver Island beaches.
That's what drones are for.
Most 15 to 50 million dollar homes along Victoria's waterfront have no public access.
Therefore, one needs a drone to get a good view.
Sunday morning I hiked 2.5km in Mt. Douglas Park. I hadn't been up Little Mount Douglas in a decade so parked along Blenkinsop Rd. and headed up the Mercer Trail.
The Tod Trail connects to Mercer in a hundred meters or so so we hung a left there and headed up the mountain.
Once atop Little Mount Doug, Tod Trail carries on down the north col to Whittaker Trail.
From there, one hangs a right southbound to pick up Mercer again and back to Blenkinsop Road. This didn't happen.
I met a couple of hikers just south of Little Mountain who were standing on a branch trail at a fork in the path. I asked them which was the main trail and they said they were standing on Blenkinsop Trail which lead back to that eponymous road. This was true but not the trail I came up on. Anyway, I came out at a designated park, parking lot and walked the few hundred metres back to my vehicle.
The climb up Little Mount Doug was steeper than I remembered so I probably won't go up this way again. The north col Tod Trail is easier and safer.
The entire route was recorded with a new free app in my phone. Avenza GPS tracking program is recommended by the Friends of Mount Douglas Park and they provide a free, online, downloadable map to go with it. This is what is shown in the image.
Starting at 9:50a.m., I set out over Mt. Tolmie on our clockwise route.
That be Horner Park, UVic Alumni Trail to Henderson Rd. then up Rattenbury and back down Glastonbury Drive.
A pleasant morning at a balmy 8°C.
