Case, Steve, Andy, Christine, Helgy and our leader Richard
We follow the Halfway Dump Side Trail for 900 m to the Georgian Bay shoreline
Clinging to the edge of the escarpment the Trail heads west toward Cove Point
where it emerges on a dolostone shelf.
From The Storm Haven Overnight Rest Area we head along a logging road
and emerge at a boulder beach
Elevensies
Another boulder beach
Halfway Rock Point
Indian Head Cove
We visit the Grotto and after a strenuous climb down Steve explores the Grotto.
The green water is where the underwater cave connects with the lake.
Then it dawns on Steve he has to find a way out .
We reach the boulder beach and turn on to the Marr Lake Side Trail
that takes us to the parking lot in the Cypress Lake National Park
Marr Lake
On the shore of Cypress Lake we came across two red chairs that were immediately occupied
by Helgy and Christine. Apparently Parks Canada has located 'Red Chairs' in most parks
across Canada at stratigic scenic locations.
After retrieving our cars we headed down Highway 6 for the long dive back to Oakville.
