Exploring Mount Nemo
Sun, Nov 1, 3:00 PM**Please note the only way to register for this adventure is on [our website.](https://www.wildernessunion.com/adventures/mt-nemo-fall-26)** **Mount Nemo is one of the best parts of the Niagara Escarpment and it's only a short drive from the city!** We'll follow the Bruce Trail for about 7 km along the top of the ridge, through old forest that grows right up to the cliff’s edge. Within a few minutes, while immersed in this UNESCO biosphere reserve, Toronto feels a lot further away than it is. This isn't a simple stroll but it is accessible for anybody wanting to get into hiking. The ground is broken up in the best way, with rock, roots and the odd scramble, and the route keeps changing character as we go. November is a good month to do it. The trail is quieter than in peak fall colour season, and depending on the year some leaves may still be hanging on. Most people arrive not knowing anyone, and by the time we're back at the cars you'll likely have a few new trail friends. **Accessibility** Wilderness Union is committed to making our adventures as accessible as possible. If you wish to make an accommodation request relating to a disability or provide feedback, please do so by sending an email to info@wildernessunion.com **Highlights** **Close to the City:** It's an hour drive from Toronto, which makes this one of the easiest ways to get onto the escarpment. **Views:** Whatever colour is left in the forest, set against the dark green of the cedars. Bare branches also mean longer sightlines across the valley. **Meet Your Crew:** A day on the trail with fellow members of the WU crew, and a few new people to plan the next hike with. **Itinerary** **10:00** \- Shuttle leaves from near Keele Station **10:00 - 11:00** \- Drive to trail head **11:00 - 15:30** \- Hike the trail with a stop for lunch along the way **15:30 - 16:30** \- Drive back to Toronto **Event cost: $55+HST. $40 optional transport also available. Please register [here.](https://www.wildernessunion.com/adventures/mt-nemo-fall-26)** **About Wilderness Union** Wilderness Union is deliberate about building an outdoors community that connects you to the life-changing magic of the outdoors and helps you find your people. Members range from 20-40 years old. The group is a mix of GTA locals and newcomers to Toronto from within Canada and abroad. Attendance numbers on Meetup don't reflect our actual event attendance - we typically have 15-20 community members at each event. Large enough that there's someone new to meet but small enough that it's not overwhelming! ***Learn more at our website [www.wildernessunion.com](https://www.wildernessunion.com/)***
Epic Birding Adventure This Sunday
Sun, Oct 25, 1:00 PM**Hello Fellow Nature Lovers,** Are you ready for an unforgettable birding adventure? This is the perfect time of year to witness some of Ontario's most iconic birds, including the stunning **Common Loon**, majestic **Sandhill Cranes**, and soaring **Eagles**. As the migration season hits its peak, now is the chance to immerse yourself in this natural spectacle—because you never know what you’ll see until you're out there with us! Plus, the weather looks great! Join me for a guided birding excursion north of Barrie, where a diverse array of species awaits. Here’s a glimpse of what we expect to encounter: **Birds we’ll likely see:** * Common Loons * Sandhill Cranes * Bonaparte Gulls * Little Gulls (a rare treat!) * Great Blue Herons * American Kestrels * Red-tailed Hawks * ...and many more! **What's special this time of year?** It's the season when **Common Loons** gather in large numbers on **Kempenfelt Bay**, and **Sandhill Cranes** form spectacular flocks, sometimes numbering in the thousands before they begin their migration south. Along with these, we’ll be keeping an eye out for birds of prey and several species of gulls, including **Great Black-backed Gulls** and the elusive **Little Gull**. Can you imagine witnessing over 100 **Common Loons** or 1,000 **Sandhill Cranes**? It’s a sight that every bird lover and photographer dreams of! Speaking of photography, this is the perfect opportunity to capture **Sandhill Cranes** in flight as they soar overhead, a must-see for anyone with a camera. We’ll also stop in Barrie to witness **Common Loons**, which gather in huge numbers, and there’s a chance to see a variety of ducks and gulls on their way to wintering grounds. Who knows what surprises we might spot out on the water? If we're lucky, a **Red-throated Loon or Pacific Loon** might make an appearance, adding an extra thrill to the day. **What to Expect:** * A full day of birding from 9:00 AM to approximately 5:00 PM * Multiple stops at key birding hotspots * A flexible itinerary that allows for spontaneous detours if rare species are reported We will meet at **Finch Station passenger pick-up at 8:45 AM** and depart promptly at **9:00 AM**. I can accommodate three guests in my vehicle, so if you’d like to join me, make sure to reserve your spot early! If you prefer to drive yourself or carpool, you’re welcome to follow along, and carpooling participants can coordinate to share gas costs. **Cost:** $99 for the professionally guided experience including transportation You can secure your spot by paying via PayPal or e-transfer to **torontonaturelovers@hotmail.com**. Please let me know once you’ve paid so I can confirm your spot on the trip. Don’t miss this chance to experience the magic of fall migration with us! **Spaces are limited, and it’s first-come, first-served** for a seat in my vehicle. I look forward to birding with you!
