Itinerary:

The terrain is hilly and challenging. Length of hike is 21 km, pace 4.5-5 km/h. The exact distance and pace will be determined by trail conditions, there are lots of opportunities to vary the distance. Map 20

This hike is suitable for advanced or strong intermediate hikers. It is not suitable for beginners. Hikers coming on this event are expected to have preferably D5 or minimally D4 level hiking experience and must be able to maintain a continuous pace of 4.5-5 km/h on challenging terrain. If it isn't obvious from your TOC record that you can do this hike, please, when registering, include some comments in the notes to convince me that you can keep up.

It is the responsibility of those coming to ensure they can hike at this pace before joining us. There will be no dropouts. Participants must show they are able to hike the distance and terrain.

We will be hiking the Bruce Trail section ( 21 km in and out ) from Mulmur Hills to Murphy's Pinnacle -a grassy hill providing a great view of the surrounding countryside and back ; and the outstanding narrow verdant valley of the Boyne River.

If the Toronto Hiking site says that the trail is 'difficult' to follow you know this should be fun to find our way. Always an adventure but you know the scenery will be spectacular as usual. Part of the Bruce Trail system and close to Mono Cliffs and tthe Hockley Valley it is a popular hiking destination.

Our hike will go, rain or shine. Do not sign up unless you are prepared to go out in the rain.

Those willing to drive and regular D5 hikers will be given preference on the waiting list
