Itinerary: | |||||||
Forks of the Credit Provincial Park is where the cliffs and crevasses of the rugged Niagara Escarpment meet the rolling hills of the Oak Ridges Moraine. The park features the excitement of the Credit River, as it narrows and rushes through a deep gorge, plunging over a falls. Geological features that were deposited or carved out by retreating glaciers, such as kame hills and kettle lakes, surround the river. The park also includes some of the upland, rolling pasture land that is typical of much of southern Ontario. We'll follow the main Bruce Trail and sidetrails. Distance covered will be approximately 18 km. Terrain will be rocky in places and there will be some steep grades. We'll pick a nice spot to eat lunch on the trail. Note that this hike will be at a minimum pace of 4k/hr and there will be no drop-outs. All participants must be able to hike continuously at this pace to come on this event. | |||||||
