This is a very nice autumn walk/hike. The weather seemed to treat you very well. I like to walk in the forest during this season. Some leaves are on the ground, some still on the trees. It all looks so magical..
Thank you for taking us along with you. I like your video as well. It was not a very long walk but you have seen different kind of vegetation. It's a great place also for kids. They could learn the names of the trees, then learn about the tornado, how to treasure nature, etc..
It was a pleasant afternoon with about 3-1/2 hours of walking, yes, at a magical time of year. There is a separate post where a bird landed in my hand, probably the most magical part.

Nice hiking in the nature, you have wonderful opportunity to charge your lungs with fresh air and enjoy the beauty of autumn. I like the forest, it is obvious that it is late autumn the trees have almost lost all their leaves and you can see through the branches blue sky. Seeing that sugar maple trees, I was surprised that the leaves are not red, I love dark red color of maple tree leaves. When I see the pictures I recall our hiking when my son was little we were every weekend in our natural recourse park but now he is teen and you can imagine it is not cool to go for a walk with his parent. I like that ruins of Flood lime kiln, looks still quite stable and a part of history.
I've never understood why people would sit in their car waiting for a close parking spot when they could just park a little further away and walk. Walking is good for you! Glad to hear I'm not the only one who thinks so.
The "alvar clearing" looks like an old parking lot that is being reclaimed by nature. That's cool.
There are a lot of different ecosystems there. It seems you made a good call by choosing the longer path.
Those lime kilns are interesting. It's strange how something like that could be forgotten after being so critical to the area for so long. That's how things go sometimes though. Everything changes... although it's neat that parts of the kiln are still around for people to see.
You sound like me. I park far from the store so I can walk further. I think we walked out there for 3-1/2 hours, and walking on uneven ground has you subtly twisting and turning in ways you don't normally get on even ground.
The alvar clearing is completely natural. You see some of it around the Great Lakes, not the prettiest. I have been limiting myself to a dozen photos or you would have seen more of the nice bush on the second path.
When you think about when the kiln was built, it was off in some remote bush. Now the city has grown closer. The swamp is in the greenbelt that surrounds Ottawa.
Yeah, I normally park in the middle of the parking lot. Then I still have a good walk to the store.
A dozen photos is probably good. I tend to overwhelm people when I go on trips and show them pictures. I like to take a lot.
That's sort of nice there's that natural greenbelt to keep things from expanding too far. Still, it does seem like it was a long way out. Maybe because people didn't like the smell.
They're not doing too bad at preserving the greenbelt but when they created it, there were already farms there, so they're leased farms now. I don't think it's ever a bad idea to have farmland close to the city.
Thanks for sharing your experience. I have always believed that we are able to travel through photos. Sharing a video makes the experience more pleasant. a complete vision of that beautiful place ... if you stare at it you can visualize a horror movie in those surroundings.
Oh, yes. Imagine if we didn't know it was there and came across it! lol
Yes, the video was better than my still photos because it gives some context. I wondered if I should have gone into the lime making process in more detail. What do you think?
That looks like a lovely trek to take. It makes me want to get out in the fresh air myself and take a hike. I'm on the coast so it would be a different type of walk but it's just nice to get out there some days.
I actually did after that. It was too nice a day not to go out for a while. Headed to the coast for a walk and fresh air. Just what i needed. Even brought the camera.

First time I've been here in weeks and I see your fantastic story! Congratulations! I leaned something new today. 👍
I'm glad you like it! I try to do a big story every week if I have photos for one.

I took 56 photos and the trip seems rushed to me. Actually, the greenbelt will be surrounded some day.
56 photos isn't bad. I'm sure you could have taken many more. It just takes a lot of time if you go back and edit them before posting.
Hopefully they don't build into the greenbelt, even if they surround it. Greenbelts are nice for remembering what nature is like.
They're not doing too bad at preserving the greenbelt but when they created it, there were already farms there, so they're leased farms now. I don't think it's ever a bad idea to have farmland close to the city.
Oh yeah, editing photos is a pain.
