Itinerary:

Does anyone want to actually hike in the rain on New Year's day!?

The forecast is 10°C and rainy and windy. Seriously. Only sign up if you WANT to hike in these conditions! Also, the car pool is for 10:30 AM. If you think you'll be hung over and won't make it, well, you know the drill!

For those of us crazy enough to want to do this, we'll be heading out to Hilton Falls in Milton, and hiking the Bruce Trail. We'll do about ½ of the Hilton Falls side trail, and then taking a short cut back by hiking along the road. It's still a pretty long hike, maybe 13 km or so.

For those interested after, we'll head to the Pickle Barrel in Yorkdale mall for some food/drinks.

~~IF you have a valid membership for the Bruce Trail, bring your card along and you will not need to pay the park entrance fee. This is per person only, not per car!~~

If you are a car pool passenger, please bring a garbage bags for your wet boots etc. Also consider bringing a towel so that you can sit on it if needed on the drive back.
