Big Cedar

The Bureau of Secret Tourism is happy to inform you about the newest executive decision of the Executive Cabinet Task Force In Matters of Internal Affairs to establish a new department in our venerable organisation – The Committee of Recreational Hiking and Countryside Exploration! Effective immediately!

We are happy to present you the pilot project of our newest branch committee – the report of the Big Cedar trail, just north of Vancouver city.

The Big Cedar tree. Its about 600 years old and can give one the idea of what the ancient forest looked like before it was destroyed by the early settlers.

Getting lost can be quite easy, there are markers, but one can easily loose sight of them in the dense shrubbery.

Kennedy falls. Cold air and moisture rush down from the mountains along with the water, making the area around the falls considerably cooler than in the forest above the creek.

In conclusion – A great hike, and a great pilot project for the new committee. Exploring nature is quite different from the usual procedure of dealing with rusted ladders and railings, climbing over barred up fences and avoiding security guards. Indeed the overconfident exploration on my part resulted in a certain amount of falls, soaked shoes and lacerated hands.

But deter us, from exploring new frontiers this shall not!
