Ministik Berg to Williams Lake
May 18, 2025 @ 9:45 am – 3:00 pm MDT
The hike is through the Ministik Bird Sanctuary and a bit beyond, much of which is the ‘Ball Berg’ section that was donated to the Nature Conservancy of Canada by the Ball family. This is of course a good chance to see birds, including waterfowl, as well as beaver. A small camera with a zoom lens or lightweight binoculars would be handy. The pictures from September 8th, 2024.
We’ll meet from the trail head on “A89A” on Range Road 210 (1 km off Hwy 14, there is a new driveway across the road from “A89A’ & they have both Alberta & Canadian flags) at 9:45 a.m.. The hike will leave from ‘A89A’ at 10:00 where we will go past several small lakes towards, the ‘Berg Stopover’ and on to the UofA section of the trail to Williams Lake for lunch..
