Another stop on our epic 2015 camping trip was at Killbear Provincial Park. This was the first time we had ever visited the park so we tried to hike as many of the trails as we could while we were there. One of the first trails was the 1.6 kilometre Twin Points Trail which was really easy but very pretty.
Two smiling girls looking forward to a nice late afternoon hike on a trail we’ve never experienced before. Maya loved to smell and explore new places.
The trail starts at a parking lot near a beach area and views of anchored sailboats. There were picnic areas and a sandy beach to enjoy there.
The trail had open areas of rock with glacial markings and gouges, as well as lots of large roots running over them.
Among the treed areas there were often erratic boulders or large areas of bedrock and Canadian Shield showing.
Some of the boulders were squared off in a peculiar way that is not uncommon but definitely not as common as round boulders. The rock above almost looks like it was cut by a machine.
There were some areas that obviously held water at different times of the year so there were small boardwalks here and there.
The trail wasn’t challenging or long but it would not be suitable for strollers or walkers. 
The trail was easy to follow with the orange blazes on trees, on rocks and on posts. Off in the distance we could see the Kilcoursie Bay.
The gorgeous shores of Killbear are stunning and rugged.
Lichen, moss, dead leaves and other plants life was growing in between the cracks of the rocks along the shoreline.
We were certainly enjoying our first day and first trail at Killbear Provincial Park. Maya was eyeing up the water, which was surprising warm.
We spend some time just sitting on the rocks and watching the water and sky. Then a luxury boat showed up and anchored. The occupants immediately whipped out some drinks and started enjoying themselves to the detriment and anyone on shore who had been enjoying the solitude of the area. 
Make sure you check out the trail guide because there are some really interesting geological features of this area, including beautiful sandy beaches in these alcoves.
