Niagara Section - Woodend Conservation Area (13.0 km) to Decew House (29.8 km) - Oct. 2.
Woodend Conservation Area (13.0 km) to Decew House (29.8 km) - October 2. Today's hike was long awaited by some and we finished the day with some very happy faces at the pole ceremonies. This hike had been cancelled a couple of times due to bad weather. Today's beautiful weather made up for the delay. 12 hikers came out to enjoy this 16.9 km hike which took 5 hrs to complete. Good weather and relatively flat trail had us all walking at a good pace, eager to enjoy the day.

There were no large ships in the working canal area to admire this time. We enjoyed elevensies at the Tim Horton's in St Catherines, and after walking through a residential area, we were back on the trail again. We walked trails shared by Brock University....
