Iroquoia #5 Sherman Falls 46.4 km to Sydenham Rd Lookout 58.6 km, January 25, 2018

 We actually hiked from the Sydenham Lookout to the 
Conservation Parking lot on Artaban Road.
 Today we had a baker's dozen: Case; Richaed (welcome back); 
Steve our leader; Marleen; Rob; John; Karen; Fran; Nancy; 
Ron; Arpi; Ann and Sefan.
 The hike started with a steep climb down past a frozen waterfall.

 We across the Dundas Valley from Sydenham Road.
 We walk through a section of Dundas and then skirt the 
Dundas Golf & Country Club


We are forced to climb around the roots of a huge maple tree 
that has recently toppled over.
The picture below is the same tree in February of last year

 Some of us fell behind the peleton but stopped for a 'bridge picture' anyway
 We stop for lunch at the recreated train station.
 We came across many treacherous icy spots 
and icers were required in these locations


 The Hermitage ruins 


 More ice

The last long hill .... and ice.
