    Description

    This is a progressive rucking series – starting off slow and building as you are able. I will be starting with a village street route as you learn the subtle skills of rucking and progressing from there to close by main and side hiking trails of the Bruce Trail.

    Information covered over the 4 weeks will include: the uses of rucking, its health benefits, proper posture and “stability” when rucking, tips on how to safely progress your rucking.

    Prerequisite of participants: Please sign up for this fun and encouraging rucking series ONLY IF: 1) YOU CAN MAKE ALL 4 WEEKS OF THE SERIES 2) You have (or can borrow) a backpack with both a hip (padded is recommended) and chest strap. A cover for your pack is optional but recommended for wet conditions; 3) you walk or hike 6km+ regularly (2-3 times a week) and can maintain a moderate pace (3-4km/hr); and, 4) you have NO unresolved joint issues (especially hip, knee, ankle and feet joints).

    What to Bring: your backpack ;), water and a snack. Please dress according to the weather (layers are best). Icers may be necessary. Note: wearing a backpack (especially with weight) will keep you warmer than without. I will be contacting you closer to the first week with any other information you may need to know.

    This series will run RAIN OR SHINE. Extreme weather will always be a consideration.

    This series is back by popular demand! Both the May and November 2025 Series were well attended and interest in a more advanced Series has been expressed. Hope to see you there!

    Description

    To mark the anniversary of Dennis Chamberlain’s passing in 2025, I am re-tracing Dennis’s first BTC hike and my first hike as hike leader. As fate would have it, Dennis and I struck up an enduring friendship that took us to all paths on the Bruce Trail, and we made many friends with the same crazy passion for hiking, adventure and friendship. All are welcome!

    We will meet at the Bruce Trail Parking area at Scotsdale Farm, and so a loop hike coving the Bennett Heritage Trail, parts of main Bruce Trail and the Great Esker Side Trail.  Total distance, 12.6 km.

    I expect we’ll tell many Dennis stories along the way and share some of Dennis’ favourite treats.

    Lunch at Kelseys Original Roadhouse, 256 Guelph St, Georgetown afterwards for those interested in joining.
