Heart Creek Trail & Quaite Creek Valley Trail

 August 28, 2004 Saturday

Me,  J Her

9 km round trip

10:30am - 2:30pm

Cool, sunny, warm, rainy

Easy 

Very nice hike along Heart Creek but very short.  Stopped at the end for lunch then walked back and then did Quaite Valley.  Rather boring scenery.  Hiked to camp sties stopped to eat then returned.  Wouldn't do this one again.

Looking back:  I was learning what I liked about hiking and while not knowing much about the trails out there, there were lots that we did that did just not cut it.  I needed more!

Rawson Lake

 August 6, 2004 - Friday

Me,  S.

9 km round trip

10:00am - 3:00pm

Mostly Sunny +21C

Moderate to Easy 

First time I did this hike. It was great.  A little bit of steepness at about 1 km mark.  Stopped for lunch at the Lake at 11:30.  Hiked a little further to a special spot.  Sometime I would like to do the steep part further on beyond the Lake.

Looking back:  Yes I did write "Moderate to Easy" got it backwards, in fact now in hindsight just saying easy would have been fine.  I had the legs for short shorts in 2004 and it was important to have a nice hair do.  A true hiker?  Not quite!
