Stanley Park

We take a ride around Stanley Park today - The damage to the park from the high winds is bad. We can't go all the way round, a lot of the park is closed, as part of the seawall is damaged, and there are trees dangling from the cliffs above the trail near prospect point. The main trails through the park are closed due to fallen trees They estimate that a few thousand trees were toppled in the wind over the last month and it will cost several million $ to clean up.

The base of a fallen tree - one of many

They are planning on up-righting this old tree.
