Date – April 10, 2011
Location – Map 4, Ball’s Falls to Map 5, Grimsby
Distance – 6.1 km
Total Trail Distance – 74.2
Hikers – Steve, Elza, Jacob, Simon, Robyn, Ben, Dean and Marlene
Start – 68.1 Niagara, Kinsmen Park
End – 74.2 Niagara, Thirty Road
Direction – West (North)
Weather – Cool and cloudy bright. It rained earlier in the morning and again at night, but we managed to have a few dry hours, with even some blue sky and sunshine. It’s warm enough for T-shirts and shorts.
Details – Last week’s hike featured pockets of snow. Today we see shoots pushing their way through fallen leaves and hear spring peeper frogs and see a snake. The trees are still completely bare and, from a distance, the forest is also bare and brown. Yet there are signs of life emerging from the forest floor.
