Sydenham Section; Colpoy's Range Road 152.0 km to Wiarton 168.4 km; September 28, 2018

 We started the hike in dry weather 
but about mid morning we donned the wet weather gear.
 Today's hikers; Case; Stefan; Karen our leader; Nancy; Sandra;
 David and Rhonda

 A bit more fall colour.
 For some folks the crevice was a bit to wide
 Colpoy's Bay, Wild Cloud and Griffen Island


 How would that look in my rock garden ?
 Tiny fungi

 The woodpecker actually removed the white BT blaze.
 Time for the rain gear.
Note the similar woodpecker hole below the blaze.
 Bruce's Cave


 We had lunch in the shelter of Bruce's Cave. 
Just at that time the skies opened up and it poured rain.



 Walking along the north side of Wiarton 'International' Airport.
 The rocks in the creek bed were very slippery.
 A bit early for Halloween 
 Our final descent off the Escarpment.


Can't wait to get out of our rain gear.
