Itinerary:

We will start at Beamer's Falls at km 2.2 at Beamer Memorial Conservation Area. We will take a look at some of the look outs over the escarpment and then hike along the escarpment to km 19.4 at Devil's Punch Bowl. Pack a lunch and we will find a place to eat it along the route.

Average hiking pace will be 4 to 4.5 km/h for about 5 to 6 hours. Note that we'll pause to take some photos when such opportunities present themselves. Please ensure you can hike the distance at the specified pace BEFORE you sign up but also please be prepared to stop and wait for the group.

BE PREPARED: We will hike as group. If you think you may be sprinting ahead... don't sign up! Also note that the terrain is expected to be slippery due to wet and leaf covered trail. Proper hiking shoes are a must!

We will be hiking rain or shine. Dress in layers for the weather.

The event involves a car shuttle. Those who are willing to drive will be moved preferentially off the waiting list. As this is a last minute posting, the event will be cancelled if there are not enough drivers signed up. Please plan to be out all day (arrival back by 6 PM). No early departures.
