RBG Escarpment Berry Tract - Monday, March 26, 2018, 8:15 Hike

 After leaving the car park we hiked uphill ...
 and then downhill ..
 we stopped for a water break and a group picture.
 then hiked downhill ...
 My camera must have gone off by accident ?
Although the weather was perfect for hiking, sunny and +4C
we did encounter a bit of mud on the last uphill.

Kerncliff Park - Dundas, Mon 26 Mar 2018, 8:45 (pix by Tom & Margaret)

16 hikers, 3 times around the counter = 48 more votes for a cross-walk at Dundas!

"Do not tamper" and do not try to mislead...

Sue & Diane: one of many descents

"Smile, you're halfway home!"

Are green trees a sign of spring?

Anita, looking good

A perfect day for a hike

... except for the mud, perhaps.

Onto the Ian Reid Side Trail
Thank you, Ian & Barbara!
Tom powers up yet another hill

Picking our way down the slippery slope
Listening to Tom's joke(?)
28 hikers -- not bad for a snowy day
In the home stretch
