We hiked 11.7 km from 7th Line to 4th Line in Hockley Valley. Hikers included Ron B, Annette, Ron J., Sandra, Isaac (roving photographer) and Steve.
After a brief road walk we were walking over rolling hills through abandoned farmland.
A brief stop for water and Isaac to hide behind a tree and take this photo of a nearby barn.
Off again we go.
Our bridge picture for the day.
In and out of the sun we went.
We came upon a sugar bush with all he lines still in place.
One of many stiles today.
A jam up at the Airport Rd stile.
Ron explaining to the group that the lilacs haven't quite opened so there is no scent.
The Trilliums were nearing there end of flowering.
But some were still spectacular.
The Trail goes up and down Hockley Valley.
Lunch on the Trail.
Ron and Annette descend some steps.
Isaac discovered this porcupine up a tree by the side of the Trail
The Trail passed through a green carpeted area of open forest.
Another descent.
The Trail passes through an area with a lot of downed trees.
As we climbed the last hill the car came in sight and we were off home after a great hike.
