Itinerary:
Please arrive 15 min before carpool departure time so that we can be on the road on time.

We'll drive out to Mono Cliffs for a winter hike. We'll hike several loop trails within the park, for about 4 hrs. Distance will depend on weather and trail conditions. Should there be significant snow fall, snowshoes may be required. There are numerous ups and downs thus footwear with icers is required. We will stop at a local pub for a warm drink/snack after hike. No alcohol consumption, if you are driving.

The hike will go on rain, snow or shine.

Additional participants will be added, as more carpool drivers sign up, to total of 12 -15 participants.

The hiking pace will depend on trail conditions, up to approximately 4 km per hour, with slower pace on the uphills. I am a SLOW hiker, making frequent stops to take photos.

We will hike as a group, and thus, wait as necessary for everyone, If you think you'll have uncontrollable urges to be constantly on the move or to sprint ahead, this is NOT an event for you. Speedsters will be put at the back of the line.

Please ensure you can hike the distance over the uneven and steep hilly terrain, and at the specified pace BEFORE you sign up.

If you're travelling by TTC to the carpool location, you're responsible for taking into consideration the TTC schedule, any service disruptions, etc in order to arrive on time. Also note, we will meet at the Passenger Pick Up location that's off Subway Crescent (not any other place at Kipling station.. ask TTC staff if you're not sure and need direction.

BE PREPARED: We will hike as a group. Again, if you think you may be sprinting ahead... don't sign up! We will be hiking rain, snow, or sunshine.

ICERS may be required depending on the weather. If they are, you will need to have them. No icers = no attendance.
