Bruce Trail Map 1 - Queenston Heights
Pincha aquí para la versión en Castellano
Perhaps it would have been wise to start our end-to-end Bruce Trail project from map 1 and go through all the trails in order. It makes sense and simplifies the process of choosing what section of the trail goes next. If I do the Bruce Trail end-to-end once again, I'll start from the beginning! We are now in the situation where we have walked both ends of the Trail: map 42 in the Tobermory end and map 1 in the Niagara Region, and we have 40 maps in between to uncover. In what order and in what direction will we do it?
For now,
I am inclined to sequentially follow the maps of the Niagara Region, which are
relatively close to home, and we will see if winter allows us to follow the
order. As for the direction of the walk, will be better if we don’t become too picky,
since we will see some occasions, like the one I am narrating Today, where the logistics
forces you to separate the group and walk in opposite directions. So, the
challenge now is to complete all the sections, in any direction, and with that
goal in mind, I am looking for the window to complete map 2, most likely in two
days.
On
Saturday, October 21st, 2023, we completed the route indicated on
map 1 of the guide[1], which has the particularity of covering a shorter
section of the Bruce Trail than the other 4 or 5 maps that I have already
reviewed. Maps 40 to 42 cover sections of about 20 kilometers each, map 2
appears to cover a section of similar size, but map 1 only covers about 7
kilometers.
The
GPS marked a distance of 7.68 Km that we covered in two hours and 15 minutes.
It was a gentle walk through the forest, the day was cold and gray, but it
didn't rain much. Many trees had the season painted on them, but a good part
was still green, which seems to indicate that we have at least a couple more
weeks left to enjoy the colors of fall.
