rattlesnake point & crawford lake

southern ontario is filled with large areas of land the locals call "conservation areas." in order to make the most of the beautiful (well, it is too humid for my taste, but i'm trying to make the best of it) weather, so along wtih avid hikers ali & belinda, who know all the cool places to go, we made our way to rattlesnake point, near crawford lake. now, myriam & mathieu also came along, & especially myriam was promised a "leisurely stroll" through the forest. ha. instead we hiked (!) 18 km. the views were gorgeous, the company delightful... & we all slept well after that!

this is a picture of everyone being thoroughly entertained by a chipmunk, who enjoyed sharing our trailmix.
