Dundas Valley
On May 7th, I went on my first hike of the Bruce Trail. It was a beautiful day – lots of sun and temps in the 60’s. The path is well groomed and fairly well marked (admittedly, I need some more work on reading those markings). I stuck to the Main Loop Trail for the most part but did head off and did part of the McCormack Trail (that was where my marking interpretation failed me – thankfully, I did have my GPS!). The thing that struck me as soon as I got out of the car was the silence – it was incredible how quiet it was. And it was beautiful. Although I didn’t bring my camera on this trip, I did have my mobile and took some pics with it. Next time I will bring the camera and be sure to get some good ones. I think the most striking image was the moss growing on the rocks up the hill. The total trip was roughly 5km on pretty hilly terrain so I am very happy with that for my first outing.
