Description
Hike #1 Moonlight Hike: We will hike up the road allowance into Loree forest, then do a loop around and back down to our cars. On winter hikes we may encounter bare ground, light snow, deep snow, or ice. Please bring snowshoes and icers. Participants should have some experience with snowshoeing. Wear appropriate clothing for the weather plus water and a snack. Headlamps may be worn, however, if it's a bright full moon, it is magical to hike without a light.
COVID-19 Precautions Before, During and After your Hike
- Each hiker joining a Bruce Trail Club organized hike must perform a self-screening check before hiking.

Other Guidelines
- Arrive 15 minutes before the start of the hike.
- Wear sturdy footwear and appropriate attire for the weather and the terrain.
Hiking poles are a good idea in any season, especially if the terrain is rocky or slippery. In winter, snowshoes or icers/crampons are needed when conditions dictate.
Wearing appropriate clothing and footwear prevents injuries and shows consideration for a safe and positive group hiking experience. - Always carry I.D. and your health card.
- Bring sufficient water and snacks (or lunch if indicated). A minimum of 1L of water is recommended on all hikes, and 3L is recommended for long, challenging hikes in the heat of the summer.
- Bring sunscreen and insect repellent (for spring and summer hikes).
- Bring your own first aid kit.
- Please leave dogs at home.
