| Comments: |
Late afternoon red-lining trip down the Kanc. Ran out of daylight for the other planned trails. Church pond is beautiful plus we hit it at sunset and made it well worth the trip. Wide XC ski trail for about half then well maintained bog bridges for the final half. Discovery loop was fine, wished we had read the pamphlet at the start of the trail as there were a couple of interesting things in there about the old logging pits and such. |
