Part 3 The Blue Trail on CTV channel 57 coming soon.
Creating awareness of the natural beauty of this area.
A walk in nature
Filmed late Spring 2008
This "trail" begins at a city park, meanders over a major expressway, down past estate homes, golf courses, hidden ponds, a natural spring, and a salt marsh, then back upwards again a bit west of its beginning -- all the while there is this sense of spiritual solitude and peace, you have long forgotten that you are actually in the center of a major urban area.
The trek can take a full exhausting dawn to dusk day (blisters included), or as we did it, done in three or four sections over the course of a month or so.
We are used to maintained and manicured gardens such as Versailles, Longwood, and Planting fields, but the greenbelt is unchanged from the last ice age filled with original native plants and trees.
Natural Urban areas such as this Greenbelt, if not protected, can be lost to us and our children's children forever.
In all fairness to this special area, it's secrets are still intact as we have chosen to highlight only those places well off the beaten path.
