Bruce Trail - Sydenham Section
In the spring of 2002 we spent 3 weekends on the Sydenham Section of the Bruce trail. We started in Wiarton and ended at the Community Centre in Blantyre. |

It was a very hot day and somehow we forgot to take a snap of the Blantyre Community Centre where our car was parked. We'll catch it next time when we begin hiking on the Beaver Valley section. |
