| Itinerary: |
| Let's go for reasonably easy stroll through Ken Whillans Resource Management Area
and enjoy
the
short trails around the fishing ponds. This is a pretty little area
within ~ 20 minutes drive from Bovaird and Main area of
Brampton. There are ~3 km of looped trails. Thus, to make
our trip more worthwhile we will then hike on the
neighbouring Bruce Trail/Caledon Trailway for about 2.5 km one
way and then return.
We'll aim to keep the hike to <2 hrs.
There is an admission fee of $5 to this Management Area.
We will meet at Starbucks at Chapters on SE corner of Bovaird
and Highway 10/Main Street and then carpool to the start
of the event. NOTE, we're meeting for carpool at 6:15 PM. If
some folks want to drive directly to the event, you need to be
there by
6:30 PM.
Non-Bramptonions note: you're welcome to join
us but
there won't be a carpool from Toronto - you'll have to get out to
Brampton's carpool location
under your own steam...
The hike will go rain or shine. Wear appropriate clothing
and footwear for
conditions and the
weather.
If there is enough interest, we can stop off Starbucks on the
way home for a quick refreshment.
Event coordinator may bring a mediuim size dog to this
hike.
