SUMMARY:Fort Ethier / Bigstone Creek (A48 towards ‘D’)

SUMMARY:Devon Ravine Trails
DESCRIPTION:This is a nice 10km hike through Devon & every time we seem to do a hike there the trail has been improved. The pictures from January 7th\, 2024. \n\n\n\nWe will start from the parking lot just outside the Lion’s Campground\, going through the ravine\, city trails & taking a few city streets (mostly Erie St. South) to the arena. The arena will be open for minor hockey\, so we’ll likely have lunch in the lobby or the stands. The arena is expanding so the outdoor rink is no longer accessible & the men’s washroom has temporarily been relocated to the dressing rooms beside the ice surface. \n\n\n\nAfter lunch will pickup the city trail by the arena\, with a slight detour around the arena construction\, continuing through town (mostly Erie St.) to pickup the river trails again back to the Lion’s Campground. \n\n\n\nWe will meet at the trailhead\, the parking area just outside of the Lion’s Campground at 10:15 a.m. and the hike will leave at 10:30.  \n\n\n\nNote: the ravine trails can be slick so having trax/spikes are recommended. \n\n\n\nIf you are new to WTA hikes\, then you should visit the Guided Hikes webpage for essential information. For further information specific to this hike\, refer to The Waskahegan Trail Guide Book\, pages 118-119\, or contact the Hike Leader\, JoAnne B. & Lee S.\, at 780-487-0645. \n\n\n\nHere are the stories of previous hikes: \n\n\n\n\nJanuary 2024\n\n\n\nJanuary 2023\n\n\n\nJanuary 2020\n\n\n\nJanuary 2019\n\n\n\nMarch 2018
