Burns bog!
i went yesterday with my school...and what a nice lil surprise. prior to the visit, i didn't know burns bog even exsisted and its located in delta... south delta by the landfill to be exact.
its such a neat place! the bog is about 7 times the size of stanley park (HUGEEEEEE) and its pretty much all peat, branches, dwarfed trees, water+dirt= LOTS of mud... we took a little hike into the heart of the bog and it was one of the nicest hike ive been on. definatly need to wear boots and water proof gear. the trip was pretty much trampling through deep mud and deeper mud and jumping on and over puddles. if you step in the wrong places you could easily sink in, in otherwards the buddy system is a musttttt. i fell in twice and my boot got sucked off, but its pretty easy to pull it out of the mud. its one of those trips where you will definately get dirty, but the mud is good for your skin...thats another positive. the lake is gorgeous, a few of us wanted to jump in for a swim, but we weren't allowed to... too bad. teheheh next time. just a nice lil place if any outdoorsey ppl want to check out.. could be a fun lil messy date too. my friend duct taped a pair of slippers to his feet and wore shorts..eventually the slippers came right off, but damn he was having a great time in the gooey mud. I LOVE IT THERE! |
