    Absolutely beautiful! You pass 3 waterfalls, mossy forests, not too busy, and the views make it all worth it!

    Left from Parking lot # 2 at Sooke Pot holes. Summited Mt. Empress. Beautiful sunny day with about 4 feet of snow on summit. Semi difficult hike, but much easier in snow conditions compared to rocky wet trail most any other time of year. Absolutely beautiful hike though. Highly recommend.
