    COVID-19 Precautions Before, During and After your Hike

    1. Each hiker joining a Bruce Trail Club organized hike must perform a self-screening check before hiking.
      Find Ontario’s self-assessment tool here: https://covid-19.ontario.ca/self-assessment/
    2. If you are experiencing COVID-19 symptoms, stay home.
    3. Personal Protective Equipment:
      • Hikers may choose to wear masks

    Transportation

    It is the Bruce Trail Conservancy’s current policy that car shuttles are allowed.  It is at the discrepancy of individual hike leaders to make that decision.

    Other Guidelines

      Hiking poles are a good idea in any season, especially if the terrain is rocky or slippery. In winter, snowshoes or icers/crampons are needed when conditions dictate.

    Description

    Join us on the fifth of our 10 Sydenham E2E Series shuttle hikes.  Peaceful rural Ontario.  Woods. Highlights include the Boyd Crevices and Inglis Falls but we also have to do some highway and road walking given the loss of private landowner access over the years.  The crevices are so deep there can be ice down there in June.   Please bring a garbage bag and a change of footwear for the shuttle (we will be muddy) and please be prepared to drive fellow hikers before or after the hike.  Please bring a smile, 3L of water, bug spray, a snack and a lunch.  Hiking boots mandatory.  Poles and gaiters recommended.  Please arrive at 9:45 am to be prepared to shuttle at 10:00 am sharp.
