Description
A route combining established trails, old trails, secret trails, and some routework to connect the whole loop
- carpool to the trailhead on the Isobel Lake Road
- hike the now-abandoned Forestry Capital Trail (I know the route) to Isobel Lake
- hike around Isobel Lake then turn up to the top of the Isobel Lookout Trail (no longer maintained)
- traverse open forest and game trails (1 km) down to the McQueen FSR, then bear west
- strike off on a not-well-known single track to the shores of Griffin Lake
- Follow the Griffin Lake Trail and then the FSR back to the start
- 9.3 km of hiking with a lunch stop along the way
- we will stay together since no one else knows the route – steady pace with only a few stops and quick photo shots only; in this way we keep our muscles and joints warm and maintain a fitness benefit
- a small group hike to make it easier for the (elderly) hike leader
- dress for the weather
- a scenic route
- the deadline for registering or cancelling is at 8:00 on Sunday
- watch the listing for updates
- (I will out a map below once I finish it)
