Description

From Sanctuary Park we will hike the Spring Creek trail and parts of the Sawmill trail to the Trail Centre.  After a break, (washrooms "should" be available at the trail centre) we will walk to the south side of the rail trail and take the Main Loop, Sulphur Creek, local access trails and rail trail  (or just the rail trail from the trail centre, dependent on conditions).

Please arrive 15 minutes before the start time.  I will be leaving at 10:00 am sharp.  Bring water, icers, a first aid kit and a snack.  Poles are highly recommended due to the number of hills and some hills may be icy/slippery, particularly the first long hill from the park.  I will cancel the hike in case of inclement weather.  Please check your email the evening before the hike in case of a cancellation.  If you must cancel after the 4:00 pm Tuesday cut-off time I will be sending contact info on the Tuesday.
