Treks and Adventures
We a 2 mile walk at the BLM Wildwood Recreation Site. We started with the Wildwood Wetland Trail and then crossed back over the Salmon River to walk the Cascade Streamwatch Trail. Afterwards we went to the Whistle Watch Stop for lunch.
We start out by visiting the Henry J. Kaiser Shipyard Memorial. The shipyard played an important part in World War 2. We then relocated over to Marine Park to walk a section the Columbia River Renaissance Trail.
The forecast was for a rainy day so we decide to stay close to home and do the Vancouver Waterfront walk. This walk hold our interest as there is something always changing. This time it was check on the progress of Terminal One new pier being build. It is also a downtown walk you can do and feel safe. We did an easy four miles and went to Say Ciao! for lunch.
I had one last piece of the Burnt Bridge Creek Trail and I finish it today. The Freeway section of the trail had a very bad problem with homeless squatters in this area. The city of Vancouver had clear out the squatters on the rest of the trail so I thought it was safe to scout this last section. I found it mostly clear with no tents and just two folks with mental problems along the trail. I walked down to the West end of the trail and back and explored the Ellan Davis Trail. My walk was 7 miles with 670 ft. elevation gain in 3 hours.
This was one of our cultural walks with Lori, Jeanette, Sylvia and I to the Clark County Historical Museum. We gathered at the Pearson Air Museum and wondered the streets of Vancouver to the Museum. After our visit to the Museum we wondered down to Brothers Cascadia Brewing Evergreen pub for lunch. We manage to get 6 miles in with all of our wondering.
