Description We will have two half-days and two full days to explore the two islands.  There is lots to do: on Hornby Island, by ferry: Mt. Geoffrey Regional Park (a significant walk on a bluff with good views if the weather cooperates), Tribune Bay Prov Park (a walk on the beach), Helliwell Provincial Park (a rocky, coastal walk), Heron Rock (sculpted rock beach walk)
on Denman Island: Boyle Point Prov Park (short, easy walk to a view of the Chrome Island Lighthouse), possibly a walk to or toward Tree Island (Sandy Island Marine Park if the tide is right; this is long and flat)  We will decide as we go, what we will do each day.
Each person or group will need to make their own arrangements to stay at Fillongley Provincial Park campground or elsewhere.  The cost is half-price for seniors.
