Van Wagner Beach, Mon 13 Sep 8:45, 7.7 km, E-E (5 m elevation gain!)

If only every hiking day had weather like this. This was the perfect day for getting back into the groove -- and avoiding hills! Michael led a group of 16 who made full use of this wide path to chat and socialize. But soon we learned we had to share it with cyclists.... No problem, we still managed to walk, chat, and admire the lake and the sky.
