Happy New Year everyone. I hope that you getting outdoors and not permitting the winter weather to keep you housebound. (I did a 15km run at -25 [wind chill] Sunday morning with the Ottawa Orienteering Club. The hardcore added another 5km through unploughed forest trails.)
One of the reasons I established this blog was to provide updates to the routes that I have profiled in Trails of Halifax Regional Municipality. Some might think that unnecessary, especially when the book was only published in July 2010, but you might be surprised how often something changes, even on a popular managed trail. Bridges wash out, facilities are added, and forest fires occasionally shut trails. So, with the aid of comments submitted to this blog, I thought that I might be able to update readers on any variations on the ground from what is presented in the book.
However, to this point nobody has commented on any changes that they might have noticed. It is possible that I made no mistakes in the book (and anyone who has written a guidebook will know that this is impossible), or that they have yet to be submitted. I am guessing it is the later, so I would like to remind everyone that if they notice something different on the trail from what I wrote in the book, please make a comment on any story on the blog. I will review it and post it for the benefit of all other users of Trails of Halifax Regional Municipality.
Enjoy your snowshoeing and cross-country skiing.
Actually, the GPS coordinates for Old Annapolis Road and Charles L. MacDonald Sports Park are the same. I found that out the hard way but made the best of it. I had my dog along so I had to go to Shubie Park instead. Not a biggie
