Living the Canadian Gulf Island Life, Salt Spring 6: Ruckle Provincial Park hike

We decide on another hike and head over to Ruckle Provincial Park. This is a beautiful BC provincial park that we hiked a portion of last year. This time we hike the entire coastline of the park. It's another beautiful day and we start out by walking thru the historic farm, then to Grandma's cove, and thru the campground. This would be a great place to camp, all of the campsites have great views of the ocean and surrounding islands. You do have to carry your camp gear to your site from the parking lot, but they have wheelbarrows to assist with that process. If we run out of money we can always come back and just camp. After the campground loop, the coastal trail heads out to Yeo point, and we lose all the people (there weren't that many anyway) - we only see two groups of people on this lengthy and beautiful trail. Another great hike on another wonderful day here on Salt Spring Island.
