Description
This series of nine hikes on the main and side trails in the Toronto Section is based on the Toronto Fall series currently led by Nancy Mooney. Many thanks to Nancy for her generosity and inspiration. These hikes will differ somewhat from the original, but have the same result: completing the Toronto Section to earn the new Limehouse Kiln badge and hiking sufficient side trails to earn the Side Trail Badge. The hikes range from 10km - 14 km. All hikes in the series will be weather-dependent and will be cancelled or re-scheduled if weather conditions are poor. We will advise hikers of cancellations via email the evening before the hike.
This ninth and final hike of the series will include the following side trails: Hilton Falls and Philip Gosling. This will be a linear hike and require a car shuffle to Hilton Falls Conservation Area. Details about the car shuffle will be provided a few days prior to the hike.
Please arrive at the meeting place by 8:15 am for 8:30 am departure. Bring plenty to drink and a snack. Dress in layers for the weather conditions, wear hiking boots, bring icers. We recommend using poles as well.
