Can't Catch A Break

 

Despite rescheduling the Daffodil Festival this year in an attempt to avoid early spring rains, Mother Nature cut it no slack on Sunday.

Visit #1477, Sunday 5 May 24, 8:25-10:10AM, 4.2 miles, 1.0 lbs. of litter.

Temps in the 50s, cloudy with showers threatening all day.

With the Daffodil Festival in full swing this weekend I could forget about easy access to Hubbard Park.

I entered through the north end of Merimere Reservoir and hiked a couple trails; one parallels the road up to East/West Peak, and the other parallels down.

The trail up was clear of fallen trees. Reaching the road I followed it toward the trail which leads down. 

It turned out to be a good choice of route today as the trail down has several fallen trees across it, which I plan to remove next week.

Below you can see where some mountain bikers with no skills 😉 had to build a stone ramp over a fallen tree.




Let's hope for drier weather next weekend.
