the walk is about 7km x 300+ days a year into Ladysmith as far as Slag Point and back.
Slag Point was built by the coal industry. All the mines ran rail lines down to the coast and sent their overburden and slag to build this barge loading area. The concrete out in the bay was part of the loading operation.

the walk - October 2018 - Slag Point, Ladysmith BC
Lot's of colour, shaggy mane mushrooms, driftwood fort, and a vancouver island deer that didn't seem to care about me or Vera. Our old great dane Vera doesn't walk much anymore. For a while, she would try, get 1 or 2000 meters out and stop. Time to go home. These days she mostley doesn't even make the effort, but every once in a while she sees us getting ready and makes it clear she's walking today. She likes to take lots of breaks, but she likes to get out.
