Thurs. Nov. 15 - Musquodobit Trails Admiral Lake Loop (Hike~ 10 k)
This is a 5.5km loop trail with 5 stunning look offs. It is rugged terrain with lots of ups and downs and large granite boulders.

It takes 4 to 4.5 hours to do the entire trail including a side trip to Skull Rock and lots of breaks. Hiking boots and poles are recommended.
