Wild Weather
The wet & windy weather of the past couple of days has meant some difficulties in Strathcona Park. On Sunday a hiker who had tried to venture up Mt. Albert Edward was rescued after spending the night outdoors, making headlines . A reminder that hikers need to be prepared for all weather conditions & carry map & compass.
For a look back at better weather, check out the Island Nature blog - several postings in August focussed on the flowers of Paradise Meadows.

Rainy Day Hike
The guided hike scheduled yesterday to Panther Lake had a slight change of plans - since the day started rainy, the handful of hardy hikers went to the Kwai Lake area instead. The weather cleared somewhat by later in the day.
The forecast looks better by later in the week, for the final program in the Wilderness Centre schedule: a Nature Walk on Thurs. Sept. 29 on Trees & Lichens with RPF Margaret Symon. The walk around the boardwalk starts at 1 p.m.
