50 km (31 mile) cycling loop in Hamilton/Burlington, Ontario Canada
Trips
This was a trip to catch the start of fishing season in Algonquin. It was supposed to be into Glacier lake via Cedar Lake/Brent access point but the Brent road was washed out.I have not been fishing since I was 17 so this was a chance to learn some stuff from my Dad and try out this area of the park. After a hiccup at the start of the trip were my Dad needed...

Hiking | 6.0 miles
Hiking | 6.0 miles
Medium length hike along the Niagra Escarpment/Bruce Trail
from Devil's Punchbowl Falls to Felker's Falls and back.
Both Falls are impressive even with little water when I checked them out would
be spectacular during periods of higher water.The start/end of the trail from Devil's Punchbowl Falls parking lot is rather steep. You can make your way up the canyon towards the bottom of the falls themselves if the water isn't too high. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Devil%27s_Punch_Bowl_%28Hamilton,_Ontario%29http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Felker%27s_Falls_%28Hamilton,_Ontario%29http://outdoorjay.blogspot.com/
One of Banff's premier hikes. It's a long trail but not terribly difficult. The trailhead is clearly marked with plenty of parking. Expect to spend at least 7 hours on trail. From the trailhead follow the clearly marked trail to Bourgeau Lake. It can be tempting to stop here but push on along the trail branching to the right. Near the end of the lake the trail will begin to quickly gain altitude...
The Fortress - Headwall Lakes & Chester Lake Circuit
Peter Lougheed Provincial Park - Kananaskis Country, Alberta, Canada
Hiking | 11.5 miles
Hiking | 11.5 miles
The Fortress is an intimidating summit when viewed from Highway 40 in Kananaskis. From the east it's nothing but huge vertical rock faces. Fortunately you can pretty much walk right up the backside with only one section of easy scrambling right at the end. We only planned to hike to the Headwall Lakes that day and had no intention of climbing The Fortress. The terrain is just so appealing that it continually drew...
per Elbow Valley Summer Trails Guide: You have a choice of getting a workout climbing the ridge edge, or taking the more gradual route up the valley behind. On top of the ridge, there are views to Moose Mountain, west down the valley and south across the Elbow River.
The most famous hike in Watertons Lake NP. You have to reach the trailhead by ferry boat, so you are limited in your time cause there is only one one boat in the morning to get you over the see and another in the evening to get you back. In the high season there are two boats in the morning or in the evening to get all the hikers across to this...
Phisical: EasyTechnical: EasyThis is very easy and present hike. Everyone can enjoy. There is not much hills which challenge you. You don't have to have hiking boots and other stuff. You can still hike with sneakers. However bring extra socks because your shoes probably will get wet. This trail can be long. It is as long as 10km. If you decide to go as far as I did, you can. If you...
Pretty easy hike up along old logging roads, then a well-marked trail. We left things a bit late to get much further along the ridge -- and ended up doing the last 40 minutes of the descent in the dark. But it was a beautiful sunny day with great views and quite a few other hikers along the route. Jan's boots didn't fit very well and she ended up losing her big...
Hike from St.Mary's place, along power lines to Baden Powel, to Dreamweaver which then turns into Mosquito Creek trail to the Grouse Road. From Grouse Road down hertiage creek trail, onto BP and back
This is a fantastic route that encompasses both natural beauty,
history, and culture. It is a very easy ride as it is down hill most of
the way. The Niagara Parkway Recreation Trail is the main path used for
90% of the journey which makes for a safe and comfortable ride. There are
many opportunities to stop along the way to explore the natural landscape,
learn about famous battles, taste some ice wine or indulge in the...

Leisure 9k photo hike in Caledon Hills, Forks of the Credit, Bruce Trail
Haven’t been hiking in the Bruce Trail for almost 20 years. Spent a day hiking the Caledon Hills, Forks of the Credit section to capture some photos of the fall foliage. Today is the 2nd weekend after Thanksgiving. This time of the year is usually a little bit too late for the fall photos and should have missed the most...
A fantastic day spent with Jon and Jessica, what a wonderful introduction to beautiful Vancouver Island! Note: The data was recorded for the descent only. For approximate total distances and time double the values.
Great endurance and pretty much flat terrain... The whole ride is beside the Bronte Creek and it's very pleasant. The second part (north of Dundas) is more technical, but it's not necessary to go on tricks since many of them are for sure deadly if you don't know what you are doing! Btw, for more of my stuff drop by at some of my other places
This was a great trail but required a minimal of 6 persons to hike otherwise 2000 canadian dollars fine. Click here to see our blog about our trail.
