It was a grey and icey day ...

with a good turnout, regardless.

Ray Lowes Side Trail & Borer's Falls December 12, 2016

 We parked at the Dog Walking Park off York Street 
and headed into the valley.

And then the long up-hill climb to the top of the escarpment

 The final climb up the rock face 

 The vistas are somewhat different in the winter ...

 The falls in winter

 After a stop to put on icers 

We navigate the descent.

John pointed out fresh deer tracks,

but we didn't see any sign of wilflife.
