Neil at the Southern Terminus
What beautiful weather for a first leg of the trail. We'd decided we we're going rain or shine so I am glad it was beautiful. The mosquitoes during the first hour or so of the trip were bad, had they been like that all day we might have had to end it early. Next time, bug spray.

This was a small waterfall like feature we encountered on the trip. It was water rushing out of what appeared to be a broken pipe of sorts. Would have looked closer but for the mosquitoes.

This is part of the Old Welland Canal. You can see the remains of 3 cars in this photo.
This part of the canal can be seen at 43º08'23.05" N 79º10'41.79" W in Google Earth

Another look up the canal. This was shot from where Glendale Ave crosses the old Canal.
This is a series of shots as the Edward L Ryerson passed under the lift bridge at Glendale Ave.
Calculating our walk on Google Earth we walked 12.64 km from the Southern Terminus to a park at 43º09'00"N 79º09'18"W.
The day ended after hiking 24.11 km (not including the time we got off the trail in Thorold).
We pick up again across from the Brock University school of Nursing. 43º07'24"N 79º14'37"W.

I'm not sure why the links to only a couple pictures work. If you need a larger version just let me know.
For the record, the unintended detour in Thorold by the Twin Lift locks was 1.78 km each way, or 3.56 km added to the total.
