This week I was finally able to start my Free Inquiry process! I completed the planned hike from my previous post about my Free Inquiry. On Sunday I did a trail hike on PKOLS/Mount Doug. I used All Trails to pick what route I wanted to take; this time I took Norn – Harrop – South Ridge – Summit then on the way back I took Summit – Glendenning – Whittaker. This was a beautiful hike with great views all around, you could even see UVic from the South Ridge trail. During this hike I did find out how steep some of the trails were which I did not know before, so it was nice to test out some new routes. I was able to take photos and videos on my phone of the scenery as well as some birds flying overhead. I would recommend this hike as there are so many trail options which can make it more accessible. Over the long weekend I plan to take it steady and do a simple trail walk near me, which I am excited to document in my next post!

Here is a link that talks about PKOLS/Mount Dougs endangered ecosystem. When hiking remember to stay on designated trails and clean up after yourself to help protect the surrounding environment.
