dundas walks: Pre-Spring Surprises
http://dundaswalks.blogspot.com/2014/03/pre-spring-surprises.html
Celebrating and preserving Dundas Ontario's scenic and utilitarian pathways and trails for walkers and cyclists. Saturday, March 15, 2014. The day before this photo was taken it was a balmy 13C and then a major snow storm changed everything back to winter. People bemoaning the loss of the spring-like weather apparently don't appreciate the non-driving winter experience. (Spring isn't officially until the vernal equinox, March 20, so really, it's not fair to complain, is it? Area Trails (City of Hamilton).

Celebrating and preserving Dundas Ontario's scenic and utilitarian pathways and trails for walkers and cyclists. Wednesday, November 12, 2014. Will we lose lower Spencer Creek Trail? Is that a bad thing or a trade off for the environment? An exciting Hamilton Conservation Authority (HCA) project to realign lower spencer creek. Into a more natural, meandering channel promises ecological benefits to the floodplain ecology. But will users of the popular Spencer Creek Trail lose out? The lower Spencer Creek ...

Celebrating and preserving Dundas Ontario's scenic and utilitarian pathways and trails for walkers and cyclists. Sunday, May 4, 2014. A Place with No Name? Regardless of the name, there is a feature of hiddenness to this body of water, tucked away out of view from major roads except for glimpses from York Road. At one edge a steep ravine drops from the road to the marsh. Hydro towers connect parallel to the north shore. As we scrounged through the scrub, having started on a deer path, we came across a bu...

Celebrating and preserving Dundas Ontario's scenic and utilitarian pathways and trails for walkers and cyclists. Thursday, July 25, 2013. It appears the Bruce Trail suffered some storm destruction recently: the local section of the Bruce Trail has posted the following on their Facebook page:. CAUTION - STORM DAMAGE ALONG THE BRUCE TRAIL. Trail Maintenance volunteers have already started clearing these trees, but it will take the next 3 weeks, at least, to completely clear the Trail. The Giant's Rib Disco...

Celebrating and preserving Dundas Ontario's scenic and utilitarian pathways and trails for walkers and cyclists. Sunday, May 26, 2013. The Rail Trail brings us close to the trees in Dundas Valley in what could be viewed as a healthy highway for walkers and cyclists. This bend in the trail near Sanctuary Park today reveals how quickly the trees have responded to the call of spring, and hopefully shows just how rewarding it is to get out into nearby nature. Saturday, May 4, 2013. May 15, 12:30pm - 1:30pm.

dundas walks: June 2014
http://dundaswalks.blogspot.com/2014_06_01_archive.html
Celebrating and preserving Dundas Ontario's scenic and utilitarian pathways and trails for walkers and cyclists. Friday, June 27, 2014. Smaller side trails entice the curious to divert into the woodland to follow spring creeks in deep valleys. One of the highlights of any week for me is time to sit alone here and think, or just deep breathe to decompress from a stressful week. There's warm sun ,or dramatic sky, a songbird flitting from branch to branch, or maybe a wandering deer grazing nearby to rem...

dundas walks: A new place to stand?
http://dundaswalks.blogspot.com/2014/02/a-new-place-to-stand.html
Celebrating and preserving Dundas Ontario's scenic and utilitarian pathways and trails for walkers and cyclists. Monday, February 17, 2014. A new place to stand? The Dundas Marsh is frozen through, and covered in several inches of snow. A new platform from which to experience the open sky, and gain a new perspective on the shorelines. Distance is deceptive when landmarks are lacking. How long will it take to reach the far shore? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Area Trails (City of Hamilton). Trails M...
