Salt Spring's newest pathway

Yet another new path on Salt Spring. This one is along the south side of Lower Ganges Road and runs from Booth Canal Road to Sharp Road. The bulk of the work was accomplished by Island Pathways volunteers. The path winds its way near the road but has dips and turns as well as a bridge and rock retaining walls.

It’s now possible to walk/ride from Booth Canal to Ganges without venturing on the Lower Ganges speedway.

    Volunteers, what would our world be without them?!

    Indeed. I heard there were over 70 000 at the London Olympics.

    Good morning picture! Late summer sun looks lovely! :)
    The shadow across the path and tracks seems to be a natural “Do Not” sign that wants to be crossed—that wants wear like the less travelled road in Robert Frost’s poem. :D
    It’s so nice to ride pathways without having to breathe diesel fumes. Thank you Island Pathways!
    Now if only there was a way around Ganges Hill! ;D

    If only we could plug in a couple of our cordless tool batteries to get a boost up Salt Spring hills…
