S2.Ep7 “Bognor Marsh to Bayview” Hiking The Bruce Trail End to End – Ridge Walking Silent Valley
Get back on trail with the seventh episode of Season Two : End to End Hiking The Bruce Trail, A Journey Across Ontario.
"Bognor Marsh to Bayview"
It was a beautiful frosty morning in April when we entered the Bognor Marsh. The hiking was perfect through this muddy wetland, as the ground was just frozen enough early in the day to keep us from sinking. We hiked around the magnificent marsh and then up the escarpment to the ridge where we had a sustained ridge walk overlooking the peaceful Silent Valley below.
Beautiful hiking on a beautiful day – lots of crevasses, and weaving through mossy outcrops as the early Spring sun shone it’s best on the scattered snow that remained.
We hiked through the community of Woodford which led to a cool hike through more crevasses, and lime kilns and stone ruins to the St.Vincent-Sydenham Townline. We had already hiked a long way along the rocky ridge but had a lot more miles to go as the clouds rolled in.
Into the muddy rocky Bayview Escarpment Provincial Nature Reserve for more ridge walking and some great views of Georgian Bay as we were getting close to Owen Sound. We walked along the border of the military base which we thought may have been the source of the loud cannon blasts we had been hearing at times in the Beaver Valley hikes.
Once again we stumbled to the finish line – another great day out on the trail.
