Mount Finlayson WA

 Mount Finlayson - 419M  249M Prominence  48.482713 -123.538573 Dec 31 2022 410M elevation gain 5KM loop On our way back home Stella and I stopped in Goldstream park. Goldstream is a lovely park just outside of Victoria with beautiful forests and many many trails. Mount Finn is the highest point in the park, and it is a fun little slightly scrambly rock trail to summit. A murder of crows swirling about the summit Route

Mount Tzouhalem WA

Mount Tzouhalem - 502 M  475M Prominence 48.773155 -123.619887 Dec 28 2022  250M elevation gain 5-10Km loop Stella and I needed to get out of the car on a roadtrip down island. I had previously noticed this big hill standing over Duncan before, and had been intrigued in getting up there. We started at the Mount Tzhouhalem trailhead and made our way up with whatever trails inspired us the most. The entire area leading up to the summit is covered in mountain bike and hiking trails. We walked around in a bit of a loop, eventually passing by the summit.   Summit views over the Cowichan bay, high water levels flood fields below. Looking over Genoa Bay (south) Unfortunately I do not remember the route
