Regional trail system a good Valley vision SANDY MCRUER

Pac Rim Active

A

gem of a trail winds its way along the Stamp River downstream towards Stamp Falls.

This trail is variously called the Angler’s Trail, Stamp Long River Trail, and Sayachlas t’a saa’nim in the Hupacasath language.

This trail was constructed nine years ago by the same dedicated group of people who are building the Alberni Inlet Trail. And they are building these trails with a vision in mind.

The vision is to have a regional trail system that links to other regional trails in other communities on Vancouver Island. And this vision is slowly becoming a reality.

On the other side of the river and downstream from the Stamp Falls Provincial

Park boundary, there is the Green Max Trail that runs from somewhere near the boundary of Stamp Falls Provincial Park down to the end of Coleman road along the west side of the river.

Then there is an obscure piece of Crown Land just north of the confluence of the Stamp and Sproat Rivers where a local trail has been established to bring you to Mackenzie Slough. Further downstream below the confluence, there is Somass Park, a city-owned property sandwiched between Service Road North and Arrowvale Campground.

Still further downstream below the Tseshaht Reserve is the road leading to the Somass Estuary Ducks Unlimited property.

From there the route could turn inland and follow Rogers Creek up to the Rogers Creek Nature Trail until it comes to the

Log Train Trail. Part of this section is under construction now.

Then the route turns south and follows a network of trails behind the city all the way to Ship Creek Road.

From there it links up to the Alberni Inlet Trail of which stages 1 and 2 are completed and stage 3 is almost complete. The section is the Runner’s trail that heads inland toward Lake Cowichan, but ends at the old Franklin Camp.

And finally the Tuck Lake Trail takes you to Alberni-Clayoquot Regional District Boundary just west of Cowichan Lake.

One side branch of this trail could extend over the shoulder of the Beaufort range from Cherry Creek to link up with a trail that goes up from the mouth of the Big Qualicum River to Horne Lake. Another could branch off from Hector road and follow the old road up the Sproat River to Sproat Lake Provincial

A local trail has been established on Crown land to access McKenzie Slough.

Park, and beyond to the Bomber Base.

This is an impressive length of trail. From above Stamp Falls to Franklin Camp is roughly the length of the West Coast Trail. But there are gaps along the way.

Several of those gaps are because of private property. Negotiations with land owners and local First Nations would be needed in order to attain agreements to cross these lands.

Agreements have been successfully achieved with Island Timberlands, and so

there is a precedent.

Some of the gaps are also because bridges are needed. Some of

them can be quite simple affairs such as the one across St. Andrews Creek and

some of the other smaller creeks in the existing network. But there are also some very significant ones where a crossing may just not be possible and a re-think of the route may be necessary.

It’s a big ambitious vision. And it is part of a larger vision, to have a trail the entire length of Vancouver Island.

This initiative is called the Vancouver Island Spine Trail. Much of this route has been completed. And I believe that it will be completed in the future.

Once it is in place it will be possible to hike from Victoria to Cape Scott. What a magnificent ambition.

HEALTHY LIVING

Health tip: Quitting

e v i t c A

smoking can be one of the most important changes to make to improve long-term health prospects.

Keep healthy into the golden years H

ealth may be the furthest thing from a young man’s mind, while the body’s physical ability is at its prime.

While life can offer excitement and adventure, when one is young, no man is invincible, and age can take a toll for some. The most common reasons that men get sick and develop long-term chronic diseases are primarily due to lifestyle choices and behaviour.

Smoking, poor eating habits, alcohol binge-drinking, plus sedentary work with few active hobbies and lack of daily exercise can lead to health problems.

The four major chronic diseases that North American men develop as they age—which are preventable— are heart disease, prostate cancer, gout and osteoporosis. Due to a variety of reasons, for the first time in history, the children of this generation are predicted to have a shorter life expectancy than their parents, and this relates to environmental conditions of our fast food, convenient culture.

With some lifestyle adjustments, these health issues can be prevented and longterm quality of life can be preserved. Quitting smoking can be one of the most important changes to make to improve long-term health prospects.

There are many resources available to

than a pill, since it tastes better, not to mention the protein, vitamin D and calcium that the fish provides that a supplement will not.

Tomato-based products, such as vegetable juice and sauces are important nutritional powerhouses for men due to the high content of lycopene. This red phytochemical acts as an antioxidant protecting cell damage and may help prevent prostate cancer.

Studies show that men who take 10 servings a week of

processed tomato products have a lower risk of developing prostate cancer.

The benefits are shown with food sources rather than supplements. Enjoy salsa, tomato sauce and V8 juice to load up on healthful lycopene for prevention.

Gout and osteoporosis also have nutritional components, as well as other lifestyle factors that can affect risk. Gout can be aggravated with alcohol and processed (smoked, cured and salted) meats, such as pepperoni, sausage,

sitting in front of electronics, and vegging out on the couch are all causing a high rate of ‘sitting disease’ and promoting our body to lose out on flexibility, strength and tone.

Moving more with fun activities and sports are critical for good health.

Osteoporosis has been known as a woman’s disease, but

men also have high rates of this bone robbing condition and it can affect quality of life in senior years with risk of fractures and disability.

Ensuring adequate intake of foods/fluids high in calcium and vitamin D are key factors to help protect bone loss after middle age.

Yogurt, cheese, canned fish with bones, and low fat milk are all good sources of calcium for prevention of osteoporosis in later years. Aim for two to three servings of these common foods daily for protection.

help people kick their butt habit.

Some important nutritional elements to highlight daily include colourful vegetables and fruits, which offer essential vitamins and minerals, antioxidants and fibre.

Dark green and orange vegetables, such as spinach, broccoli, peas, leafy greens, sweet potatoes, carrots and squash offer folate, vitamins A, C, E, and K, plus the B vitamins and betacarotene.

Healthy fats that come from nuts/seeds and fish are natural ways to ensure dietary goodness.

Omega-3 fats may help prevent inflammation and auto-immune problems down the line and are good for brain health.

One of the easiest and best ways to get the essential Omega-3 fats are eating salmon, halibut, sardines, tuna, mackerel, trout, herring, ground flax, chia seeds and hemp hearts. One serving of salmon is equivalent to five supplements (1000mg) of wild salmon oil omega-3 pills. Food is better
