Description
Beth Gilhespy, a conservationist, amateur geologist and former Bruce Trail Conservancy CEO, will introduce us to the geology of our area. This will be a slow, exploratory hike of 4 to 5 hours in length. Beth will explain the geological history of the Palisades and Inglis Falls. This hike is longer than the Saturday hike and while there will be frequent stops to explore the geology, it is more suited to hikers with some experience. Non members are welcome. Preregistration is required.
