Caledon - Innis lake Rd.(31.6 km) to 7th Line (42.2 km) - May 16th, 2019


Today's hike was 10.6 km from Innis lake Rd. to 7th Line Access Trail through rolling hills and apparently too many steep hills.

Hikers were Eric, Isaac, Marleen, David, Ron, Annette, Nancy and Steve our photographer.

After a brief road walk we entered a forest along a road easement.  The ground was reasonably dry despite all the rain we have seen over the past few days.


Ron demonstrates his nimbleness crossing a creek while we all respectively observe.

We all made it across with dry feet each of us in our own way.

We all rush to see what Ron has discovered.  I believe the technical term for what he discovered was a cup like fungi thingie.

Less excitement from the group for the next discovery.


Our bridge picture without Annette who at this point had joined a group of faster hikers.

Off we go again through an old growth forest.


We had Elevensies in a pine forest just south of Highway #9 as was evident from the sound of trucks climbing a nearby hill.


The BT passes along a field that has been planted with pine trees.

A collection of red trilliums were in bloom along with Dutchman's Britches

Annette found the Iron Throne ideally placed at the top of one of the many large hills that our leader had forgotten about.

One last viewpoint before we turn towards the cars.
