Eight club members welcomed the New Year with a (very) brisk walk around Rebecca Spit on Monday January 2, making the full loop from the Sasquatch parking lot north to the point, then heading back down via the campground to Heriot Bay road, and back to our cars. We moved to the west side of the Spit to have our Hot Chocolate social out of the light north-east wind.

The trail was surprisingly deserted and only one sailboat (of sorts) was anchored in Drew Harbour. Despite the washout on Heriot Bay Road, the Spit and trails were in good condition.

All New Year’s diet resolutions were postponed until Tuesday as we enjoyed our sweet snacks and hot chocolate (many thanks to Les and Diana for the delicious treats).  (6.1 km; 1.5 hours walking)
