Geocache Description:

A nice place to walk the dog along West Highland Creek. A favourite walk of Eduardo. Depending on where you access the bike path determines how accessible the trail is. We begin just behind Cedar Ridge which has a steep hill at the outset, but rest of the trail is quite comfortable. Cache is just off the paved path, but should be accessible in winter.
Thanks to Doolins for additional trailhead info : parking and trail access can be found at the corner of Celeste Dr & Templeton Crt -

The day we hid the cache we spotted salmon spawning -- we've spotted quite a lot of wildlife on our numerous walks beside the creek.

FTF for dog lovers - collapsable water bowl.

West Highland Creek begins in L'Amoreaux Park just west of Kennedy Road and north of McNicoll Avenue. It flows southwest and passes under Birchmount Road and Finch Avenue. West Highland Creek flows under Kennedy Road into Agincourt and under Sheppard Avenue. It heads south under a grade-separated junction of a Canadian National Railway track (used by the GO Transit Stouffville line) and a Canadian Pacific Railway mainline. The creek flows south under Highway 401, loops west then back east under the Canadian National line, and turns east at the Scarborough RT line west of Midland Avenue. It passes under Midland turns south under Ellesmere Road into Birkdale Ravine Park.
It flows under Brimley Road into Thomson Memorial Park, then under McCowan Road and further under Lawrence Avenue. It passes under Bellamy Road, heads east through Cedarbrook Park, under Markham Road and into Scarborough Golf and Country Club. It then heads northeast into Highland Creek Park, takes in an unnamed left tributary creek arriving from Curran Hall Ravine, and passes back under Lawrence Avenue. Finally, West Highland Creek enters Morningside Park and reaches its mouth at Highland Creek.
