6th & 7th Hike - Old Stomping Grounds

For the 6th and 7th hikes on the Trail, I went to my old stomping grounds in Hockley Valley. I got a new app for my phone called "Trails". It plots where you've hiked based on GPS, also tracking elevations, distance and speed.

For the first hike I went from the 3rd line, following the Glen Cross Side Trail. It met up with the Bruce Trail for a while, then I left it at the Isabel East Side Trail and reconnected with the Glen Cross Side Trail to get me back to the car.

This new app shows the average speed, duration, elevation and pace.  It's quite fun to have these little tidbits of information. :)

This second set is from today's hike. Starting at the Danby Road parking lot. I followed the Bruce Trail through some lovely meadows. 

      
Along the hike here was a reforestation project. I found the dates interesting :).

As always, there is a lot of beauty in God's creation:

On the drive home, there was a beautiful view of the other side of the valley.  In a couple of weeks, this is going to be aflame with colour.
