Toronto - Speyside (11.4 km) to Limehouse (21.5 km) - Nov. 11th, 2021

 

The hike today was 10.1 km over relatively technical terrain and is a hike we make sure we do before the snow flies as a lot of drifting occurs on the field portion of the hike.

It was a full crew out for today's hike with Muris, Catherine, Boyd, Laura, Peter, Doug (photographer), Ron, Michael, Alex, Barbara, Marleen, Sandra, Arpi, and Annette all joining Brian as the hike leader.

Marleen soon found a hemlock to hug.

Off we go into the forest.

Doug says this is an example of woodpecker ablation whatever that is.

Back into the woods.


Muris and Ron Learn about swamps.

The sun came out as we continued the hike. Are Muris and Ron still talking about swamps?

Barbara, Catherine and Sandra making sure no one is left behind.  Barbara has a special poppy on this day.

Boyd has some of us laughing.

Marleen, Annette, and Brian pausing for a brief moment.

Doug with new hikers Peter and Laura.

Elevensies!

A teachers assignment?
