Frozen Rapids Snowshoe

**Please note the only way to register for this adventure is on [our website.](https://www.wildernessunion.com/adventures/historic-winter-2026)** ***Join us as we explore this seemingly untouched wilderness known to just a few.*** This hike is a genuine adventure, taking us to a spot where trails appear out of nowhere then disappear again as soon as you find them. While only 9km, this is a harder hike that will see us bushwhacking through dense forest, hopping over myriad streams and potentially trudging through thick snow. The reward is incredible however - we end up tracing a raging river along an impossibly pretty shoreline and past some ferocious rapids. If you've been itching for something a bit more challenging, this is your chance. On this hike you can expect: \- Trekking along icy rivers \- Sprawling frozen scenery \- Raging rapids \- An epic feat of engineering ***A note for self-drivers: parking can be precarious here, especially with heavy snowfall. You are strongly encouraged to take WU transport to avoid issues.*** ***Snowshoes are included in the cost of this adventure. Please indicate at checkout if you require a pair.*** **Highlights** **Ferocious Rapids -** Trek along this winding riverbank with tumultuous rapids forming the river's path **A Forgotten River -** This river is teeming with life and beauty, how could anyone forget that! **Little-Known Crown Land Hike -** Hike through the unknown where the trail comes and goes. We doubt you'll see anybody else out there. **Event cost: $60+HST - optional transport available.** **Register [here.](https://www.wildernessunion.com/adventures/historic-winter-2026)** **About Wilderness Union** Wilderness Union is deliberate about building an outdoors community that connects you to the life-changing magic of the outdoors and helps you find your people. Members range from 20-40 years old. The group is a mix of GTA locals and newcomers to Toronto from within Canada and abroad. Attendance numbers on Meetup don't reflect our actual event attendance - we typically have 15-20 community members at each event. Large enough that there's someone new to meet but small enough that it's not overwhelming! ***Learn more at our website [www.wildernessunion.com](https://www.wildernessunion.com/)***

Urban Walk: Introductory Hike – Crothers Woods

Anyone is welcome to join this hike but we are especially inviting our new members (and prospective members) to learn about our hiking program and how our guided hikes are classified and described in the hike schedule and what you should bring with you on hike. We will explore Crothers Woods in the Don Valley, nature in the heart of the city, which will present some moderate challanges with it's ups and downs giving it's Level 2 classification. The actual route will depend on conditions of the day to keep it a moderate level hike. Please bring ice traction cleats (mandatory) for a safe hike. We'll have a brief outdoor snack/lunch stop along the route. We will return to Todmorden Mills at the end of the hike. Note transit users will need to ascend the fairly steep hill on Pottery Road at the conclusion of the hike. Washrooms are available at the Todmorden Mills Site. On this introductory hike we will: * Discuss how a hike is classified (Level 1,2,3, Moderate/Fast, etc) * Discuss the variables that affect the difficulty of any particular hike * Discuss why different people have different perspectives on the difficulty level of the same hike * Demonstrate some terrain that would raise the difficulty level of hike hiking * Help you know you have the information required to choose the hikes right for you Register At BTC website : [https://hikes.brucetrail.org/event/crothers-woods-introductory-hike/2026-02-22/](https://hikes.brucetrail.org/event/crothers-woods-introductory-hike/2026-02-22/) Please register at above so we have you on the waiver form
