Itinerary:
**Please note the different meeting place from my usual walks in this area**
We will meet at the corner of 75 Street / Ada Boulevard (this is the westernmost point of Ada Boulevard, and is located west of Wayne Gretzky Drive and south of 112 Avenue).
There is a small grassed area at this corner with a viewpoint over the River Valley and the Kinnaird Ravine - I will be waiting by there.

***PLEASE NOTE PARKING REGULATIONS IN THE AREA.
ON 75 STREET ITSELF, THERE IS 2 HOUR PARKING ALLOWED.
ON OTHER NEARBY STREETS IT IS ONE HOUR PARKING.
YOU SHOULD PARK ON 75 STREET, AS WE WILL NEED THE 2 HOUR PARKING***

This is intended to be at a more relaxed pace than my usual hikes in the River Valley, and this will be "easy peasy" as there are no gradients to deal with.
We will be walking around quiet streets and admiring the nice historic properties (that I can only dream of affording) as well as the great views over the River Valley.

Meet at 6:00pm for a 6:10 departure.
Please meet at the corner of 75 Street and Ada Boulevard, and I will be wearing or carrying my yellow cap so you can recognise me.

We will walk for 50 mins max - east along Ada Boulevard, then turn around and return to the start point.
So, event duration will be 2 x 50 mins max, remember we don't want to be away from the cars for more than 2 hours! (parking restrictions).

Dogs are very welcome on this event, and if you are bringing your dog(s), please include them when you sign up for the event.
