We had a nice hike into the Cabrits National Park yesterday (Friday) afternoon. We decided to hike the West Cabrits and look for some ruins that are shown on the trail map but that we could not locate the last time we were here. Hike up was nice, with it being unusually windy the past several days we were able to stay quite a bit cooler as we walked up to the top of the mountain. After we got to the top we were able to see out to the North and South of Prince Rupert Bay and thought we saw an Island Packet coming into the anchorage from the South (Kewaydin?).
We went off the trails and were able to find the ruins that we were looking for but they were not in very good shape. What was supposed to be old barracks and a hospital were now just some low rubble with a few areas where we could make out what had been a wall and then what looked like a cistern.
We hiked back down the mountain and back along the bay to where we had left our dinghy. Saw Kewaydin anchored and decided after a stop for an adult beverage that we would stop and say hi.
