Thank you for posting this video. It was fun to watch and enjoy! Would you be willing to share which trail map you used, and where it is available for purchase? (I have the trail map, but it does not have that awesome profile that you show early in the video.)
You bet! I purchased the “waterproof” map from the Killarney Park office.
@@torchhours Alrighty! Thank you, I shall order a new map. :)
Did you book multiple sites as you didnt know where you'd end a day? I understand it but it means those sites were unavailable for others right?
@@SeanMiller-p1p We used both sites as we had more than 6 people. I didn’t visit most of the other sites we booked to check them out.
Great episode. Excited for your boat !
Glad you liked it
Just posting the most beautiful day on the trail. Stay tuned.
This place is something truly amazing, these shots are phenomenal my friend. Absolutely gorgeous ambience!
Great vid 👍
Glad you enjoyed
Great Boat !
Thanks so much.
Gorgeous work my friend 👏👏
Thank you. Your videos are great as well.
🤘 "Promo SM"
Ski stickers go on my laptop. Easy to find after going through airport security!
I started doing this RUclips thing last winter because I wanted to share my skiing experiences. Have fun! Thanks for posting.
ThankYou for restaurant and food coverage !
Your new video format is great ! 😊
Glad you think so!
Such a beautiful and therapeutic atmosphere, such a gorgeous narration too my friend!
Thank you kindly!
How long was the hike from Little Cove to the Grotto？
It was a long day for us, because I had to teenagers who weren't used to hiking.
Miss You Guys!!!
Miss you too Junior
That view at about 2 min is precious :) 💚
Looks like a great outdoor adventure you had there. Beautiful greens and view and the stone wall was a highlight too. You definitely got a new follower here ;) Have a wonderful day & happy trails, Mario
Thanks it was a great day. Hope you also enjoyed some hikes in 2023.
Thank you, yeah I had an amazing season!@@torchhours
Great timing… I was checking Torch Hours this morning to see if there was a further instalment… looks verdant!! 😊👍
More to come!
Amazingly captured winter scenery, loving the combined audio and visuals.
Short but sweet! The white markers on the trees are a swipe of paint… trail markers? I hadn’t noticed these in other TH hike videos… thanks 👍😊
so nice. you have my subscribe… Thank you..
..a cool video keep up the great content.. Thank you…
Thanks for encouragement.
@@torchhours see you..
love going along for the journey! these are great
Glad you like them! Thank you Esteban.
You picked a great time to tackle this one. When I started the Iroquoia Section in 2018 I did Beamer Falls to Fifty Rd. the first weekend in June and the road walk between Beamer and Woolverton Rd. was absolutely terrible in the heat.
Eeek. I can only imagine. I did Smokey Hollow to Borer Falls in August heat. We Ubered back to our car. Shhh.
👍
Thanks for watching Eugene.
Without any doubt, one of the best trails I've hiked in Canada. Thank you very much for inviting us to join you in this adventure! Beautiful Video!
So glad were able to do this together.
Wow…the water almost looked tropical!
Right?! It does look tropical. And feels that way on a hot day - maybe not;)
Great video, thanks for sharing. How many kilometres round trip did it take?
I posted details on my blog post - torchhours.com/2021/05/30/bruce-trail-maps-13-14-silver-creek-to-terra-cotta/
Nice video!
Thanks for watching.
Nice video!
Thanks for visiting:)
Beautiful scenery, it’s lovely to see wild strawberry 🍓😍👍🏼
Trail treats are the best. Thanks for watching.
Very nice. I went there yesterday, I walk from upper falls to lower falls, then went to Twenty Valley trail. Those stairs are a work out.
It's great there, isn't it? Those stairs were a fun way to end the hike.
How long of a trip is it from Lake Ontario to Old Mill? I haven't done it yet, obviously, but I plan to do so very soon.
Hmmm. I guess it depends on your strategy. I like to take my time and enjoy the moment. Perhaps 1hr 30 mins.
Nice and Creative Videos， This is really my favourite channel.:). I really glad to see your post and your world was so brilliant.I decided to share them with my friends. Hope to bring happiness and healing to those who are stuck at home 🌴🌴🌴 excellent and Much appreciated!!🌴🌴🌴 🌴🌴🌴 🌴🌴🌴 🌴🌴🌴 Walter Saunders Memorial Park

Great hike and catchy music!!!
Thanks Eugene. Eventually, I would like my own custom soundtrack.
Very cool..... hard to believe that's TO!
There are some very surprising nature corridors in Toronto.
Awesome bike for that light 😉
Thanks. The bike is quite special.
I love that light! Wish I had a bike so I could have one too! I love the way it matches your nails <3
Thank you Katt. I hope you can get your hands on a bike.
awee!! do you possibly know what seeds you are growing?
Yes, I planted Norway Spruce seeds. The Norway Spruce is apparently the fastest growing type spruce.
Great hike, Shyla!
Love the daffodils! & such a noisy cute little frog.. I thought it was cicadas LOL! What a pretty & interesting trail that is.. Loved the waterfall too ;-)
Thank you for watching Katt. Glad you enjoyed it.
Brilliant Shyla!
