We had 4 new members join us for this 10.1 km hike from Limehouse to Speyside. The weather was cool and threatening rain as we started off on our hike.
We were a group of ten including Rob, Ron, Karen, Marlene, Nancy, Annette, Eric, George and Stefan. In the absence of Case, Steve did double duty as Leader and Photographer. Don't worry Case, your job is not in jeopardy.
After inspecting the Powder house we soon hiked by the Limekiln.
and the remnants of a mill.
We soon came upon the Hole-in-the-Wall.
Eric waits for Rob to fit through the Hole.
Always light on his feet, Stefan skipped up the stairs.
We descended to 5th Line and then began the crossing of a series of farmfields
as well as the mandatory stiles.
After leaving the farms, we were into a new growth forest.
This portion of the trail has some rocky areas that made footing treacherous.
The bleak bushes reinforce "Winter is Coming", for those Game of Thrones fans.
Steve confirms that we have almost completed the hike.
The rains began as we finished the hike which encouraged us to pack up quickly and head off home.
