Jennie’s Trail
In August 2010, the Society voted to rename the portion of the Lighthouse View Trail which directly accesses the Lighthouse as “Jennie’s Trail”, in memory of Jennie Caruthers. A brass plaque was installed in December 2011 at the trailhead, which states:
“This portion of the Lighthouse Trails is dedicated to Jennie Caruthers who, with her husband Dr. Marvin Caruthers, provided critical foresight, advice, leadership and financial support essential to the creation of this magnificent hiking trail.
Created on private lands and presented to the people of Vancouver Island, “Jennie’s Trail” is dedicated in her memory with the love and admiration of the community.”
