Caledon 15.7 km to 33.8 km October 13, 2016

This section was from 15.7 km at the Dorothy Medhurst Side Trail to 33.8 
at the intersection of Finnerty Road and Innis LakeRoad.

Wonderful hiking weather, tenp about 10 C and mostly sunny.

Biil, Annemarie and Case were dropped off at Brimstone.
Bill and Annmarie needed the section from  km 15.7 to 18.3 where we were met by Steve and David.

We hiked the Dorothy Medhurst Side Trail to km 15.7.
The side trail starts out with a long climb to the top of valley. 



Fantastic fall colours along Puckering Lane




We meet Steve and David at the Escarpment Sideroad km 18.3.
The Trail turns to the left and climbs up the hill.

Puffball trying to hide in the underbrush ....

Beautiful Sumach


The Trail comes back out to the Escarpment Side Road

where we had planned to drop in on Sir Elton, but apparently he wasn't home.

We pass through the pedestrian tunnel under Highway #10.


The Trail turns north on St. Andrew's Road where we pass by the pretty St. Andrew's Stone Church built in 1853.


Lunch break.

Interesting fungi ....
not to be confused with Steve Kelly, known as an interesting 'fun guy'.


The Trail follows the Escarpment Sideroad again and turn north onto Airport Road.



We reach the car at Innis Lake Road, take off our hiking boots and
head to Tim Hortons in Caledon for much refreshments.
