S1.Ep16 "Noisy River" Hiking The Bruce Trail End To End : A Journey Across Ontario
Season 1, Episode 16 : “Noisy River”
🌲🚶🌳Subscribe🌲🍁🌲
The Bruce Trail Journey across Ontario continues through the rural Mulmer countryside and into Noisy River Nature Reserve / Provincial Park.
It was a beautiful day in September, and the leaves were just starting to show some fall colours. This episode is kind of like a stand alone movie. We have a new hiking companion and the late summer scenes and flora were soaking in the heat and the sun. I tried to capture the experience in a different way - really trying to bring you along with us on this astoundingly beautiful walk.
The day started where we left off a month earlier on Prince of Wales Road in Kilgore. There were a lot of road sections in this stretch but as usual they were inspiring and gorgeous in their own way. Nice to have that variety of rural and deep woods.
We ducked off the road for a trail section (thanks to the landowners) and then back to Prince of Wales Road which we would veer off from again shortly after and then back on further up the trail. In this next section we came upon a spectacular view of the Pine River country and the vast expanse of the landscape. The crickets were chirping loudly in the September air.
Eventually we hit the bridge crossing of Black Bank Creek – thanks again to the volunteers and pioneers who make this all possible. The day was sweet, the flowers were popping and there was plenty of water sources to keep hydrated for the hot road sections.
We found a cave / crevasse system that we explored for a while, then back on trail, After a few delicious trail apples we made it to the end of the Dufferin Hi-Land section and entered the “Blue Mountains”, gaining an inch or two in elevation as we walked through Lavender.
Noisy River park brought us back into escarpment rock crevasses and a gorgeous countryside to end the day cooling our feet in the mighty Noisy River.
We never did find the Mulmer Tavern.
