Bridgman Park in North Vancouver

I went to Bridgman Park because John and Kate wanted to hike. I've been here a few times and I love it. I get to hike with them all the way to Twin Falls and it takes over two hours so I get an awesome walk. This time they got lost, so we ended up walking for four hours.. Kate said one of her toenails came off.. gross.. There's lots of dogs here.

There aren't too many parking spots here. Maybe space for about 30 cars but it's free! There's lots of other dogs here, and even some horses. There's some cyclists so watch out for. Oh, and watch out for the huge horse poos everywhere..

The hike starts out relatively easy. But it starts to get more difficult. I think you need to be wearing good shoes if you plan to walk all the way to Twin Falls. There's some steep areas, and some slippery cliff edge areas. But I've seen a few moms or dads with their baby in one of those knapsack looking things (Kate thinks it's called a Baby Bjorn or a Snugli), I guess they are very experienced hikers.

On the way to Twin Falls, there's a cool place to rest and even dip your feet. I like to stop here and cool off by sitting in the water.

That's me cooling off! Everyone was laughing at me cause I wouldn't get up for awhile. It was HOT that day!

Kate noticed this, she thought it looked like a dog with floppy ears.

At last, at Twin Falls. The view is breathtaking. At this point, I need to be on leash.

At this point, you can turn back and head back the way you came, or you can climb the steps, then turn left, and proceed to go back through a residential route.
(that's how Kate and John got lost).
