Creator Transcript
  • 25 white cabin at the end of Settler's road. About half way is a natural meadow with the ruins of an old shack. The only route is by way of the creek bank. From here we went out to Glint's farm at Sooke a very fine piece of land running right to the beach. Raccoons + deer are very numerous + do quite a bit of damage. At mile 25 we turned off the road again + went in to Young's Lake on which Senator [George Henry] Barnard has a summer cottage. Red winged blackbirds were seen + large numbers of coot fed at the north end of the lake. About 1/2 way up the mountain W [West] of this lake there is an extensive trail of tall broom mixed with copper bush, arbutus + jack pine. A large covey of quail inhabited this, only about 15 birds
