Wilderness Activity Group (WAG) Walk ... The Don Valley Trail to the Brickworks



The first WAG walk was a wonderful success (see photos below).  We started our day by packing up all of our hiking bags with our snacks and lunch and then we set out down the Don Valley trail towards the Evergreen Brickworks.  The Evergreen Brickworks is an old brick factory that has been transformed into an amazing indoor/outdoor market and event space.  It has a beautiful natural area behind it- a meadow, ponds and a forest- that we explored.  We made grilled cheese sandwiches and s'mores on our cookout stove and watched hawks careening around the clifftops.  We also noticed tadpoles, dragonflies, monarch butterflies and a very large preying mantis.  All in all, it was a great day to explore the great outdoors.
