Write Up:
We enjoyed a beautiful weather (despite a terrible forecast). Another opportunity to show what a hikers Army looks like: 6 brave hikers explored the Don Valley Hills discovery walk. We miss the horses and farm animals of Riverdale, they closes at 5:00pm.

While approaching to Prince Edwards viaduct, the subway train just stopped to allow us to take the perfect picture. We saw the GO train a couple of times, but its driver was not as picture friendly as the TTC.

After reaching Broadview we lost two Sinisa and Adele. The rest of us continued all the way to Castle Frank. Watching Toronto under the Sunset light on the Prince Edward viaduct was great experience.

We got a little bit dissoriented trying to connect to the Vale Avoca Ravine at Craileight park. Finally, we found the secret path. Andrew and Ken now share a water brotherwood.

We passed Brickworks and followed the Moore Ravine until the pedestrian bridge of Health street, were we exit and walked a couple of blocks until St. Clair subway station.

Was a great walk, 14.5 kilometers in 3 hours, for a great peace of 4.8K!!!! As usual, Margaret shoes were on fire!!!!
