Raising the Bar

 
 

After a short break, onward and upward at 188.2 mins.

 

Yes, this is the trail, though a number of fallen logs still cover the trail at 189.5 mins.

 

The trail takes a turn (I came from the right and will turn right to go to the left - I am outside the corner in the bushes) at 193.2 mins.

 

Another view from outside the corner at 193.5 mins.

 

Evidence of slash and burn or forest fire at 197.5 mins.

 

Moss on a tree, under which one ducks to hike onward - with packs it may be a slight bit low at 199.1 mins.

 

Cresting on to the first logging road that comes from the old Confederation Trail trailhead (where locals start off to Confederation still) at 201.3 mins.

 

Signs mark both sides of the logging road at 201.7 mins.

 

Looking down the logging road, which would also be an exit back to the waiting bicycle that will transport me back to the truck at Haywire Bay, but to cover the trail I continue ... at 202.1 mins.

 

Across the logging road and up into the woods at 202.4 mins.

 

To a slight incline and then a steep incline at 203.2 mins.

 

And finally cresting at Rubberband Junction at 205 mins.

 

The trail continues left, up to the Zig Zag, a marvellous construction of the BOMB squad at 205.6 mins.

 

But right will take me down the .5 km or so to the bicycle at the parking area on this logging road at 205.3 mins.

 
 

Extending from Inland Lake Trail, just short of Anthony Island (proceeding around the lake clockwise), up the hill to the access roads that most locals use when hiking just up to Confederation Lake, this trail enables the Sunshine Coast Trail to make use of these already existent and popular trails.
