28/12: A New Trail
Category: General
Posted by: The Agnew Family
We decided to head out of town today and try snow shoeing on the Brant Tract Trail System. In the summer this is a popular place for mountain bike riders.
As you can see they have a number of different trails for bikes. In the winter, snowshoers and cross country skiers are allowed to access the trail. Unfortunately, there was a large sign indicating the that the trails were closed due to logging. As it was a Saturday and we didn't hear any chain saws we snowshoed part of the trail. It was a nice trail but not one we'd probably go back to often as the West and East Roads are heavily used by snowmobilers. The sound of the engines take away from the quiet forests. But I did tell Ed that we need to bring our bikes next summer and ride some of the trails --- not the widow maker.
