2 June 2023 – West from home today, into Pacific Spirit Park on the University Endowment Lands — 55 km of trails woven through 874 hectares of forest, bog, cliff and beach.
Amidst the grandeur, small perfect cameos.
The bold colours today, of an old burn…

the swirl of a dancing tree root…

and — we are in a forest after all — a resident brown bear.

Oh, all right. He came later.
