Cloverlawn (A39 towards Stan’s Bench/A38 & Mud Lake)

The “Cloverlawn” hike a modification of 3 favourites (Stan’s Bench, Source of the Blackmud & Coal Lake North End) to accommodate a lost section of the trail along Mud Lake (as we can no longer get all the way to “Mix Stopover”).

We’ll meet at the trail head “A39” (on Township Road 483A) at 9:45 a.m.. The hike will leave from ‘A39’ at 10:00, initially crossing a farm before starting a climb that has amazing views of Mud Lake, Coal Lake and the Gwynne valley. Followed by some twists & tuns through the woods past an unusual “pet cemetery”, stopping at Stan’s Bench before descending down past A38 where we will have lunch near Mud Lake before returning.
