Large log home

A bit of a contrast to yesterday's little log home blip!  This one overlooks Cusheon Cove and is at the end of a trail that some friends told us about, a trail we'd never heard of, so we went exploring today.  It's called the Chris Hatfield Trail.  Hatfield is a marine biologist. I found this info on Google:
"Imagine it’s 1915 and you’re on a small island in the Strait of Georgia with a population of just over 900. Now imagine a large sawmill with what was then state-of-the-art machinery on an isolated cove on the southeast side of the island. The mill employs up to 150 workers, many of them non-resident Norwegians, Swedes, Japanese, and Chinese. This is only a fragment of the story Chris Hatfield researched after he acquired the 100-acre site in 1984 and began finding items discarded by the different communities that had once lived there. Chris partly donated and partly sold most of the land to BC Parks in 2006."
There's a book called Forgotten Cusheon Cove written by Charles Kahn that explores the property’s history and apparently there's a museum at the site of the mill, so we'll have to see if we can find both.  Fantastic to have another trail through the forest to enjoy.  It was a jungle in there! (see extra)  We saw some amazing reflections is a pond and I wish I could have got them all in a shot.  Partial reflections here.
