Six people and two dogs hiked to Nugedzi Lakes.  The day was sunny with northwest wind and a perfect temperature for hiking.  There have been a lot of trees blown down in the Nugedzi – Mt. Seymour area over the winter, so progress was a bit slow, but there were no major obstacles.  The trail committee has cleared most of the problems on this trail and flagged detours around the rest. The group had lunch at the lakes and made the side trip to the viewpoint past the beaver ponds on the way down.

Hiking Nugedzi 2 June 2013

Eight hikers took advantage of the Kellerhal’s generous offer to hike on their 160 acre property.  The route followed mossy bluffs over Raven Crag and out toward Hyacinthe Point with great views of Hyacinthe Bay, Sutil Channel, and Chinese Mountains.  The lunch stop at Coast Mountain lookout added views to the east.  We also walked to the pond, the beach and the old Schoolhouse.  Rolf and Heather provided excellent commentary about the history and natural history of the area.
