This is the 27th Bruce Trail hike in this series of BT events. If you can't make the entire hike, maybe join us for part of it or just meet at at the beginning to say hi and see us off.
Meet at 10:30am at the posted coordinates, which is the 126.6km mark (Edition 28 of Bruce Trail guide) of the Peninsula section of the Bruce Trail which is at the National Park gate where Crane Lake Rd meets the forest access road (N45 11.447 W81 25.191). We plan to start hiking around 11:00am.
Destination is the 157.6km mark (Edition 28 of Bruce Trail guide) of the Peninsula section of the Bruce Trail which is at a small parking lot off of Little Cove Rd (N45 14.825 W81 36.925).
Parking: Beginning: Roadside parking near the National Park Gate (N45 11.447 W81 25.191). Park well away from the farm and park gates to avoid blocking farm and emergency vehicles. End: Small parking lot off of Little Cove Rd (N45 14.825 W81 36.925).
Hopefully some people will park at the end and carpool back to the starting point both before and after the hike. It's about a 30 minute drive from the end point to the start point.
