Description

After the work in Santa's workshop some of the elves are ready for a day outside. Join Anne and Phill (and maybe some other elves with Stuart Law from Dufferin Hi-land) for an easy and fun "in and out" hike into Bronte Creek Provincial Park. We will take in the Woodlands Trail alongside and down to Bronte Creek, then up to Spruce Lane Farm and the Trillium Trail. We will then head north on an old farm track between two fields to enjoy more woods on our way back to our cars. (We may not see any reindeer but there may be some local species around.) The park amenities will be closed. Please bring icers, a warm drink, some water and a light lunch. Poles recommended for some hills down to the river. PLEASE ARRIVE AT  9:45am. for a 10:00 am. START. You should have plenty of time to get home for Christmas dinner.
