Thanks to Joan for the following comments and pictures.
Nine walkers enjoyed a perfect autumn walk around the Quarry.( or
part thereof in the case of a few dallyers) Next walk we plan to
travel further south along the Trans Canada Trail, hopefully to
McGee Creek. Meet at the Legion at 10 am with suggestions for
the walk and lunch out, the following week.
