Light snow was falling as Eric, Ron J., Catherine, Madge, Kelly (a guest hiker), and Steve began this 12. 5 km hike from Peartree parking lot to the Kelso Conservation parking lot.
The trail had been hiked before us so there was not a lot of trail breaking to be done but the rocky nature of this stretch made the hiking slow.
Camera shy Ron runs to get out of the picture.
Three natural snowballs formed on a rock

The golf courses closed early this year.

The bridge is looking like it needs repair with quite the sag in the middle.
The trail passes under the 401 on 5th Line.

We reach the cars with some Christmas decoration.
