Yogi Bear

Yesterday Auntie Sam picked me up from school and we went hiking at Minnekhada Regional Park. We like hiking together. When we got to the park we put on our hiking boots and backpacks. We had to wear our rain jackets because it was raining. Auntie Sam took my picture at the beginning of the trail.

We started on the lodge trail then turned onto Fern trail. When we got to Addington trail lookout we took the trail to the lookout and sat down and had our snacks and water. We also watched a tug boat go down Pitt River. When we were done we went back up that trail back to Fern trail.

Fern trail then became Mid-Marsh trail. We crossed over the first bridge. There was lots of bird houses in the trees. One bird house fell down out of the tree. We also saw a beaver dam too. We ran into a lady with four dogs. She let us pet them. She told us that other people told her that there where three bears spotted. One was in the parking lot. The other two were across the mid-marsh. We thanked the lady for letting us know about the bears. We were a little worried about the bear being spotted in the parking lot because we were heading back to the car.

We crossed over the second bridge which was on Log Walk trail. Half way down the trail we ran into the bear. He was sanding in the middle of the trail looking at us. We stopped and slowly backed up and went over the Log Walk bridge back to where we saw the lady that told us about the bears. We then went down a different trail to the car.

Once we got back to the parking lot we got into the car really fast. It was a really good hike. We hiked about 13.2 kms in total.


Below is a few pictures of our hike.
