I have changed the date from Saturday 9 June to Sunday 10 June.

We'll meet at the Upper works TH and ascend MacNaughton.  round trip distance, about 10 miles.  A lot of the trip is off trail where the going will be slower.

Hikers will need to wear long sleeves, pants, sturdy gloves (i,.e. leather or plastic gloves)  and bring eyeware - clear or amber glasses - as the bushwhack can be thick.

Weather may be unpredictable, so bring raingear.  also Lunch, a minimum of three (3) liters of water, a bug net and a big smile.

The pace is a slower moderate and my time estimation is around 10 - 12 hours, so please plan your schedules accordingly.  On my hikes, I don't allow breakaways for faster hikers after the goal is achieved.  What we start together, we finish together.

Well behaved dogs and their owners are welcome.

    I haven't decided whether we're going to do the 10 mile whack or the 15 mile one...
