Itinerary:
Let's welcome spring by hiking around the Claireville Conservation Area for about 8km in total, at a pace of around 4km/hr. Bring a loaded backpack if you'd like a heartier workout.

We'll meet at the north entrance, at the intersection of Hwy 7 and McVean.

The ground will be snowy and/or muddy, so wear sturdy walking shoes/boots with good soles. Rain or snow gear may be in order, depending on the weather.

Dogs are permitted but must be on a leash for the duration of the walk.

We'll go for a coffee or other beverage afterwards, if the group is interested.

Non-Bramptonians note: all members are welcome but there won't be a carpool - you'll have to get out to Brampton under your own steam... the 501 Zum bus will get you from York University to Hwy 7 and McVean, which is the stop for Claireville CA
