The Bluff Wilderness Trail, https://wrweo.ca/wp/the-bluff-trail/, is a gem for enjoying wilderness so close to an urban area, in this case Halifax, the capital of Nova Scotia, Canada. My husband and I have hiked some or all the loops available several times; thank you to @toesalad and family for introducing it to us. April 23, 2017, was the earliest in the season we’ve hiked here, offering a different, more open view without the foliage. Very few hikers but a nice trek - logged close to 20KM.

I have good memories of that place! I think we actually used some footage from that in our video series title sequence. What loop did you guys do? Was that the whole outer loop?
We did the Pot Lake and Indian Hill loops https://wrweo.ca/wp/the-bluff-trail/ Got on the trail close to 2:00 and finished about 4 hours later. Few mucky spots, some sunny spells, not much wind. My shoes were too loose, in a hurry around a rocky area, in spite of my trekking pools did one of my signature wipe-outs :) Shoulder a little sore but thankfully nothing too serious...
Ouch! Glad to hear you are OK!
You should start GPS recording your trips so you can post the routes here along with your journal entries!
Let’s talk about that soon - I don’t have a GPS, could I use an App on my iPhone?
Probably! Let's ask the expert :-) Hey @Guthook do you have any recommendations for good GPS tracking apps for the iPhone?
Best overall GPS app for iPhone I think is GaiaGPS. I did add a tracking feature to my iPhone apps if you just want to record a track and don't need any other fancy stuff.
Thanks @Guthook - the simpler the better for me - but it’s a cool idea.
And I will look into it - @toesalad I got my Tarp Tent this week (yahoo!) so am looking forward to hiking on the trail :)
Hey toesalad you realise that if we get hooked up to another technology you will be on call for consultation :)
LOL, I figure it is going to happen whether I introduce you to it or you get it on your own :-) Unless it is some crazy new power tool...
