It was our first hike of the season on the city trails. Feedback from the hikers was “A great day to check out the river valley trails” and “Great company to boot”!
…and Kinnaird Ravine was “amazing.”
Landowner Rights & Trail User Responsibilities
The Waskahegan Trail is a unique resource that exists only because of the generosity of landowners. Before you set foot on the trail:
- Know the landowner rights and the trail user responsibilities.
- Check the trail conditions
Hike: Wanisan Lake to Meadow Shelter
On October 29, thirteen brave souls came out on a cold blustery day for a hike on well maintained trails covered with fallen leaves.We hiked about 7 km on a number of Blackfoot Recreation Area trails. Then we stopped for a well deserved break for lunch at Meadows Shelter.
After warming up, we continued on the Waskahegan Trail along Wanisan Lake.
The maintenance crew did a great job of repairing and replacing boardwalks. However, the beavers have been very active this fall.
…This boardwalk was almost surrounded by a beaver den.
Great opportunity to see a den up close.
