Day three of Cape Chignecto

Slow days at home and very little time on social media has made me really slow to share this trip but don’t get it wrong it was a great trip well worth sharing 😝

We have been having fun with these sessions, the final one is coming up and I am also excited that we will be ending the session with so time together in the forest at Forest Glen Adventures!

The Argyle Recreation Department is pleased to offer our third Trekking Sessions with Nicola Fenton, called “Gear and Gadgets”. Participants will learn how to prepare and pack for success for day hikes and overnighters; basic necessities to bring along; and mental preparedness and wilderness appreciation. The session will end with a walk in the woods at Forest Glen Adventures owned by Heather Brittain. This activity is free of charge; however, registration is required as space is limited. To register, call the Argyle Recreation Department at 902-648-3379.

Just got back from hiking Cape Chignecto 🤩
Loved the trail, visiting one of my favourite places for some restorative energy after 50 odd challenging kilometres 😃

I was a fall equinox baby, and it’s my favourite time of year! 🍂🍁🍄‍🟫🌾

I spent my birthday hiking in the Tobeatic on a trail that is as bygone as the early memories made in the derelict cabin by the river.

Trekking to these places is meaningful, so much history has been lost already, It’s a privilege to get out on these trails, see these places and honour the history. If only we could hear all the stories and preserve the routes and structures (m😢

The adventure had some challenges, as all good adventures do, but somehow in the wilderness I received birthday cake, birthday socks and honey whiskey 🥃 🤩

To top it all off despite a recent reinjury to my low back I have worked hard to support it and I felt strong and had no pain!

🥃 cheers to strength and abundance for year 3️⃣7️⃣
WELCOME FALL 🌻🍄‍🟫🥃🍁🎂🧦
