Harvesting Spaghetti Trees

Submitted by Sibylle on 3 April, 2011 - 10:38

Pat and I were the only mainlanders following teagirl's call to harvest Spaghetti Trees in East Sooke Park this past Saturday. A shame really, as the scenery, trails and superb event hosting by Katie make this a must-do trip for any Fat Ass worth their trail shoes ;-)

Spaghetti Trees by the Token Male

Submitted by Carlos Castillo on 3 April, 2011 - 08:27

This was my second running of the soon to be Spring "Classic".

Kate had managed to convince the weather Gods to shine on us.

I was running with four well prepared women, the nuclius of which was my Sunday long run group, plus one brave newbie to CFA and my group of "usual suspects".

April Fools Bag Bowen

Submitted by Ean Jackson on 1 April, 2011 - 18:55
April 1st is the first day of the North Shore Bagger Challenge.  It's also April Fools day.
 
I trust Environment Canada. So 'round about 11:00 last night when Conroy calls me to see if I am into earning some first bagging bragging rights, I consulted the most reliable weather website I know of before opting-in. I truly didn't suspect that Environment Canada would say it was going to be warm and sunny if it wasn't going to be warm and sunny.

Lost Dog Update - Mosquito Creek

Submitted by Killaine on 30 March, 2011 - 06:57

HURLEY UPDATE...PLEASE HELP! Hurley's owner was following up on a lead from yesterday by hiking up the Dream Weaver trail to near the Kwai Bridge. Barking heard in that area yesterday & today he heard it also but because of the way the forest & landscape is it is very difficult to pinpoint. He spent a long time trying to figure out where it was coming from & heard it several times but it never got closer & he could never figure out from which direction it came.

Thunder and Lightning snowshoe

Submitted by gottgross on 27 March, 2011 - 19:00
Could not have had a better day and even the low turnout could not dampen our spirits. The rebel I am, I broke one Club Fat Ass rule. Yes I marked the trail, but the sweep removed al the flagging, so nothing was left behind. We had only one runner attempting the 23km, but unfortunately Ward had to pull out early, due to injury, hope you are ok. The rest of us did 13 km, Rob and Kandra (hope I spelled your name right) got there late but managed to hook up with us, completing about 10km. Thanks for the pics  Kandra.
