So we did a little side trip to Ronning Garden today. The old wagon trail leads to an old homestead that was established by Bernt Ronning in 1910 until the early 1960's. Bernt ordered seeds from all over the world and developed a unique garden which encludes the original Monkey Puzzle trees that are mom and pop to most of the ones grown on Vancouver Island. photo's by June Hale

ROAD CONDITIONS TO SAN JOSEF BAY MAY 17, 2024
CAPE SCOTT PARKING LOT
HWY 19 to NE 60

Road conditions were pretty good (On the Holberg scale!!) today heading to San Josef Bay. The Mainline Grader has been working the Holberg road from KM 3, in 3-5 KM sections all week. There is logging activity between Holberg and Highway 19 so be sure to keep your eyes peeled and move over when you see a logging truck coming.

NE 60 to Holberg

The grader has been working NE 60 hard between the windfarm turnoff to Holberg. The road is quite good but watch out for those shot rocks, they are hard on your tires, especially if you don’t have 8 ply tires or higher.

Holberg to Cape Scott Parking Lot

From Holberg on San Jo Main and San Jo….well it’s not great! And there is active logging! There are loaded logging trucks (Hwy trucks and FAT Trucks) on San Jo main between Holberg and Stranby forest service road, (KM 5-11). The road is narrow there so you might have to back up to a pull out. (We encountered a truck at KM 8 who did not call out on the radio and we had to back up to the closest turn out!)
There are lots of potholes so going is fairly slow unless you want to beat your vehicle up. Any car can make it out there but if you don’t have good tires there’s a good chance you won’t. Make sure you have a full sized spare. Remember that if you have to get towed it’s going to be expensive.

Any day is a good day to get out in nature. Today's rain made the forest greens brilliant, the sea life and tidal pools were abundant with life and the sea caves made a great hidey hole for lunch.

Howdy hikers! As the season gets into full swing we thought we'd share a road report from a recent outing! Have fun, stay safe and happy trails!

We’re noticing an increase in leisure travel around the north end of the island and in our neck of the woods. Passenger cars, minivans, trucks with campers and enduro motorbikes. They all have two things in common; excitement and the distinct “Holberg Paint Job” - a lower body smeared with dir...
