What a beautiful hike on Mt. Richard’s in the Cowichan Valley, with the Fox gloves. 10 of us had a wonderful day. I gave them an overview of the beautiful trail system, reaching all the nice views. 13km, 4.5 hours on a nice day in June.
Thank you hikers who joined in, from the Outdoor Club of Victoria
and the Island Mountains Ramblers. It was a pleasure to lead.
