Itinerary:

Meet at the parking lot next to the Twin Brooks Community Garden. Look for Mark with the red touque.

We will do a walk through the community and end up on the gravel trail that borders the Twin Brooks community and overlooks the Whitemud Creek. We will continue on to a *wildlife corridor trail/tunnel in the McTaggert Sanctuary South end, with a new exploratory loop on the other side of Whitemud Creek. We can stop for a quick snack on the route (bring to share if you wish). If you're wearing a Santa hat or dressed as an elf, we might be able to coax some reindeer out of the forest!! *Festive dress optional ;)

The distance will be about 12 kms. and the terrain is forested with some steep hills, and frozen bridge.

Bring walking aids (walking stick, cleats/icers, etc) as desired as there could be slippery sections.
