TRIP REPORT

TRAILS DAY WORK PROJECT -VEDDER MOUNTAIN TRAIL – NOV 22/2014

On Saturday, November 22nd at 9:30 a.m. 12 hardy souls showed up at Mt Waddington’s Outdoor store to participate in the first Trails Day Work Project on Vedder Mountain. It was spearheaded by Gary Baker, whose arm is in a sling due to recent shoulder surgery and the rest of the COC Trails Committee. The focus of the project was to create an access trail around the deep ditches left in the road from a previous logging operation. The access trail would give hikers a manageable trail to use rather than navigate the deep ditches. Barriers at the trail head would be created to prevent ATV’s and dirt bikes from using the Vedder Mountain Trail.

The work crew collected an assortment of tools from Sam’s storage locker, piled into several 4x4’s and headed for the trail head. Gary and Sheryl cheered us on and gave us a wave good bye. The day looked promising as the crew was eager and it had not yet started to rain.

Arriving at the trail head the crew geared up for the work then laid out a trail alignment over 100 meters long through the forest skirting the deep ditches. Spread out along the trail, the crew slashed and pruned brush as John Leblanc

worked feverously with his chain saw removing dead fall and creating wood barriers from the sawn trees.

It was enjoyable working in the forest, as the ground was mostly a layer of natural forest litter. The crew diligently chopped, shoveled, raked and grunted as the trail started to take form.

David Lock, the VMTA Director (CORMAC) showed up to deliver trail head sign posts. He was very impressed with the


work progress and the trail location. Within several hours the trail was completed, sturdy log barriers were created and trail signs pounded in place indicating the access route. The crew stopped for lunch then packed up the gear and deposited the tools back at Sam’s storage locker just as it started to pour rain. It was a delightful, fun day for all and a job well done to provide a well-constructed trail head access route to the one of Chilliwack’s famous trails on Vedder Mountain.

A Special Thanks to the volunteers for their hard work and team spirit to improve one of Chilliwack’s most well used trails. Participants for the first trail work project on Vedder Mountain were: Lori Bodkin, Don Field, John Uselman, Ray Dawes, Zaneta Balazova, Garry Rice, Jim Reid, Alan Wheatley, John McClellan, Ken Orr, John Leblanc (chain saw and expertise), Gary Baker and Sheryl Henderson (support and coordination) David Lock (trail signs) John Laframboise – report writer.

STATLU LAKE – DEC. 31, 2014

4WD – check. Micro-spikes – check. Potential obstacles: washouts on road, river crossing, top-of-falls crossing, ice, deteriorating bridge + trail. Results: at the end of the day we were able to say: “We made it to the lake!”

It had been 5 years since we’d been up to the lake. So in a spirit of exploration, we buckled in and set off for a long scenic drive along the west side of Harrison Lake. The gravel Harrison West Rd. was in good condition, other than a few potholes. At 41.5 km we turned west onto Mystery Rd. but had to stop when we got to the blocked bridge over the Chehalis River. I was disappointed. How long would it take to get to the trailhead now? Would we make it to the lake?

It was 11:00am when we began to walk, over the bridge and then turning an abrupt right on the Chehalis FSR. It was a fairly level hike for 1 hour to the river where the ends of 2 huge logs from a former road bridge hung suspended over a broad creek. Here we carefully picked our way across on dry boulders. Thankfully the water was low. Within 5 minutes we

were at the second bridge, which we could cross but very carefully since there were many snow-covered gaps and holes in the wood.

From there we turned off of the road onto a narrower more overgrown FSR, which began climbing and came to an abrupt end in about 15 minutes. Back in the days, before the avalanche on Chehalis Lake Rd. in 2007, this is where 4WDs would park. No longer. Even the road from the blocked bridge had major washouts that were not there 5 years ago. Now the trail did short switchbacks through the forest. Time to put those micro-spikes on as there was more ice and crusty snow on the ground and on the rocks.

2.5 hours later we got to the top of the falls. Fatalities have occurred here. This day the crossing was uneventful since the water was low, iced over and boulders made for an easy crossing. A short trail to the left led to a breath-taking fantastic view of the falls as it gushed over the edge and spilled 100s of meters below into an ice-covered valley. I had Steve hang onto my backpack as I snapped a few shots of it. The torrents of water seemed to want to pull me down with it.

Another 10 minutes and we were at the east end of Statlu Lake. Our reward: a beautiful view of the golden winter sun reflecting on the thin crust of patterned ice coating the massive expanse of green water. Stark white peaks and glaciers made for a most scenic backdrop to the lake. About


half a foot of powder snow covered the ground. “OK gang,no more than ½ an hour lunch break. Don’t want to be hiking back in the dark.”

2:00pm we started back, past the falls with the broken rope, oh so carefully down the iced-over granite section, then a hoist over the huge snow-covered rock into a narrow gully close to the cliff and finally back on the FSR, following our footsteps in the snow back across the bridge and river and then the final stretch with it’s creeks and trickling waterfalls framed by icicles and iced covered boughs. In 2 hours we were back at the vehicles.

Stats: 622m elevation gain / 14.5 km / 4WD / 616m high

Thanks to you hikers who came out to enjoy nature on this sunny, cold and last day of the year: JoAnne Puchaile, Mehdi Rafiee, Michael Regan, Peter Timmermans (Case’s cousin), Steve Trudeau + Case & Joce T.

RADIUM LAKE TRAIL – JAN. 1, 2015 A nice turnout for New Years Day, there were 8 of us in all : Bill W. And his daughter Paige, I brought my Grandson Clayton along, John Laf, Margaret T. Lori B. And Robbin Y. we decided to hike up the Radium Trail to the Bridge.

We all packed snow shoes along, but as it turned out, we didn’t need them, we were hiking in fresh snow, but it wasn’t deep or hard to walk in, although the trees were snow bombing us on occasion. It turned out to be a nice day a bit chilly, but sunny and we all enjoyed the hike, we stopped for lunch at the bridge and were all hunkered down eating when Clayton decided to explore a little further out on the bridge, none of us realized at the time that the cables were attached high in the trees, and the trees heavily laden with snow. It turned out that his weight on the bridge started a chain reaction, and the rest of us were absolutely covered in snow, in retrospect it was quite humorous, but at the time shocking and cold, we couldn’t figure out what was happening at first.

We were out of the bush in no short order and warmed up over coffees, and hot chocolate at Waves, thanks to all for helping to bring New Years in, in a most enjoyable way. -‐ Terry B.

ABBOTSFORD URBAN FOREST – JAN. 3, 2015

What is a hike? According to The Free Dictionary online a hike is “an extended walk for pleasure or exercise, especially in a natural setting.” So was the Abbotsford Urban Forest jaunt a hike or a walk? True, we crossed five streets, saw number of homes and were on an asphalt trail for almost half the distance. However, also true, we enjoyed the the natural settings of four ravine trails; Horn Creek, Old Riverside, Downes Bowl and Upper Maclure. Plus, we circled the marsh ponds Fish Trap Creek and Ponderosa. Distance was approximately 15 km return with still more trail.

So, was this a hike? I think so, a hike out of the ordinary for COC folk. Besides myself I believe Alex M, Sharon R, Ray D, Robbin Y, Abe & Shirley G, Margaret T, Randy K and Jim R have not hiked all of these trails. Comments were quite positive about it being a good day and worth repeating.

Interesting hike experience? Randy found a soccer ball in some blackberries next to a practice field. After lunch along the Fish Trap Creek trail I lost two hikers. Imagine losing hikers on an urban forest trail. Ray and Robbin stayed


behind to look for his cell phone. Fortunately, after splitting into two search groups ten minutes later all were reunited including the phone. Later on the Discovery Trail just before the junction to the Upper Maclure trail a lady kindly took our group photo. Years ago she was a COC member. She recalled “lots of wild parties.” Hmmmmmmmmm?

Hike over we headed to the Common Touch for coffee and goodies. - Dave Ortis

TAMIHI CREEK – JAN. 7, 2015 Dave W. Offered to take us into the Tamihi creek area which he had previously explored on his own, we had a group of 6, Irene and I rode the first couple of km in the back of Dave’s pickup, Liz and Phil, Dave W. And Margaret T. Rode in the front. It was another beautiful sunny day, perfect hiking temperatures. We hiked up the road from 9:30 am until noon, there was an old logging road to follow into the valley but most of it was washed away and just a goat trail in places.

It was a wonderful sunny day (we are so charmed on Wednesday’s) the going was fairly level, not a lot of elevation, good news for Phil who needs to get his hiking legs back after a fairly long absence. We lunched beside a pretty little waterfall, and in the summer I would like to explore this area more, we had some great views of Church

Mountain, and going further in we saw Tommyhoi and other Northern Cascades Mountains. We decided that this was a long enough hike for one day, we figured we were approx 7km in.

Back to the pickup and onward to Waves for coffees. Thanks to those that came along for the great company. - Terry B.

MINNEKHADA REGIONAL PARK – JAN 10, 2015

The 200 hectare Minnekhada Regional Park in Coquitlam has nice trails. Forested with old growth and second growth trees a lot of our hiking was on mountain sides requiring non-arduous climbing. The highest elevation climb is 180 m to High Knoll with its view of the Fraser Valley, mountains to the north and the Pitt-Addington Marsh to the east. Unfortunately low cloud and fog hampered the views.

We first hiked the Perimeter Trail. Then stopped for lunch at a picnic site near the Minnekhada Lodge built by Eric Hamber in 1934 as a country retreat for hunting. Hamber was a lumber baron. He was governor general of B.C. from 1936 to 1941. After a lazy lunch we snooped around the lodge. We were unable to enter the premises because it is only open to the public Sunday afternoons.

After our snooping we retraced our steps about a quarter of the way back on the Perimeter Trail then branched onto the


Green Trail which led us to the Dyke Trail then onto the Meadow Trail back onto the perimeter trail for a short walk back to the vehicles. The Dyke Trail cuts a large marsh in half. According to Trail Peak the marsh is a bird watchers paradise. We saw hundreds water fowl plus beaver dams.

In the parking lot Amy G had to bid us farewell. Sharon R, Bob T, Manfred H, Jim R, Margaret T, new member Mala W and myself headed for Waves Coffee Shop in Maple Ridge.

Total hiking distance was about 14 km 4 to 5 hours of leisurely hiking. Nice on a winter day and it would be a nice summer hike as well except that on weekends expect lot of hiker traffic. - Dave Ortis

SNOW SHOE JAN 11 - FROSTY MTN.

5 coc members and 2 guests headed up the Frosty trail, 9 am start. A low cloud was hanging over the lake but a blue patch was spotted now and then. The icy snow crunched under our snowshoes for the first couple kms. This was our first snowshoe for the season so we headed up at a slow and steady pace. The clouds did lift a bit and had some views of the Hozamens. Stopped for lunch at the 4k mark, headed down early and drank coffee at the Blue Moose by 4. Thanks AnnLee, Doug, Sue, Geoff, Brittene, and Ken for coming....Irene H.

HAYWARD LAKE – JAN. 14, 2015 There were 6 hikers heading out in two vehicles, we were Phil and Liz L. Vern S. Ray D. Dave W. And myself, the fog was thick in this area, and we almost went elsewhere to find some sunshine, but I am glad we didn’t as there were some really interesting photos to be had in the mist.

We arrived at the trail head at approx 9:10, and verified the fact that there will be no circling the lake again until work on the dam is finished in 2018.

We hiked the north side up to the power plant, where we discovered them breaking down the set for the tv movie The 100. My grandkids watch this show with me, so I was quite anxious to get as much information as I could on the setting. Unfortunately they couldn’t let us into the power plant itself, but we were allowed to stay in the foyer, where we decided to have our lunch and watch the comings and goings of the prop men and women.

Heading back at approx 12:30, we hike the two hours back to the vehicles, could have done it quicker, but I wanted to capture the mists and effect of sunshine in the mist.


I calculated out distance at roughly 14 km in total, and after some yam fries and coffee at the pub we headed home. Thanks to those that were along today. - Terry B.

CHADSEY LAKE – JAN. 21, 2015 12 hikers hit the trail head at 9 a.m. a nice sized group, but I have to admit the weather couldn’t have been better, it was a very still day and the sun shining, I saw some more of that funny frost on the sticks along the trail, I looked it up, and they are called “Frost flowers”.

I am absolutely blown away by the beauty and delicacy of these...the picture I have attached is a silky hair ice called “Frost Beard” according to Wikipedia, we arrived at the lake at 11:30 it was very clean and well maintained now that there are people looking after the trail and the parks in the area.

Back to the vehicles by 2, we had an enjoyable social at the Wired Monk before dispersing at 3:00 Thanks to everyone that came along. Alan and Moira, Liz and Phil, Margaret T. Irene H. Dave W. Vern S. Lori B. Don F. Steve T. –Terry B

SKI CALLAGHAN-LOST LAKE LOPPETS - JANUARY 22-24, 2015

And sliding on the morning snow, Dear friend, we’ll let our worries go. -Alexander Pushkin Winter Morning

We had hoped to get to Ski Callaghan by midmorning on the 22nd, but a serious and tragic car accident between Chilliwack and Abbotsford delayed our departure. We reached Whistler Olympic Park (WOP) by about 1:00pm and were on our classic skis in haste. The clouds played cat and mouse, sucker holes of blue appeared, day star warmed us and the beauty of winter light was a charmer when it lasted---all the remnants of the 2010 Olympics remain, including the two ski jumps and the shooting range. There were few at Ski Callaghan, so we had the varied trails to ourselves most of the afternoon---green, blue and black runs delighted us as we did, mostly, the Olympic Biathlon cruisers. Dusk joined us, a light mist began to fall and we knew it was time to head to Whistler Hostel—a lovely 10KL leg stretcher of an afternoon loppet at Whistler Olympic Park behind us, a dry shelter for the night our destination.

The rain decided to pester us most of the 23rd, but we were dressed well and our clothing was tested to the limits—rain, rain and more rain. The benefit of the wetter weather was that we had most of the trails to ourselves and the snow was soft and pleasant as up and down the groomed trails we travelled---We entered the snow terrain via historic Callaghan Country, and most of the skiing day (9:00-2:00) we did the Madeley-Norwegian Woods trail (with the Beatles song jostling in our memory)---the only sound in the treed forest was the skis on snow as we nordic style, trudged up moderate hillsides and glided down them again. We had a lovely lunch by a roaring fire at the WOP Lodge and took in more information about Nordic-Skater ski differences and compatibilities—most informative indeed (see photo poster for details of ski-pole lengths that differentiate the two styles). A ski day is not complete unless night skiing is on the agenda, so, in the evening, we headed to Lost Lake, darkness and thick mist well with us, and did a loop of Lost Lake----again rain was falling, the snow was superb and few were on the snow path---always a charmer to ski at night


with a lights above leading the way. We covered almost 20 KL between daytime Ski Callaghan and the night time Lost Lake loop, another feast of loppets tucked well in memories.

The 24th was no different than the 23rd----more and more rain, but we headed back to Lost Lake and did the fuller loop via Panorama snow pathway. We purchased our tickets at Passivhaus (which was celebrating its 5th anniversary—built for the Whistler Olympics in 2010—we only paid $10:00 for trail fees). Many are the fine snow treks in the Lost Lake area and the combination of Sky Callaghan and Lost Lake

loppets means more than 80KL are available for classic-skater skiing. We were gone from Lost Lake Passivhaus by 11:00 am and back in the Fraser Valley by 1:30 (a fine few days on soft snow behind us, our worries gone like vanishing clouds)—stay tuned for the February Ski Callaghan-Lost Lake trip.

Participants: John Laframboise, April Gardner, Ron Dart (leader and reporter)
