A Walk up the West Hill

If you walk across Moir Athletic Park and through one of the gates on the far/west side there are a many trails that go off in all directions.  By taking the steepish hills up to the benches you fill find wonderful views of the Rocky Mountain trench and unfortunately, a lot of litter. Despite the wanton dumping of beer cans, bottles and various unwanted household goods the walk is worth it for the views and wildflowers.  By packing along a few garbage bags and removing our fellow humans' rubbish this lovely area will be better for having you there.
