Win prizes at 41st Lions
In the past 10 years hundreds
of miles of hiking trails have been
constructed in th"e provinZe of
Ontario. The most fanious and
probably the most challenging
trail is called the Bruce Trail.This
400 mile tong trail follows the top
of the Niagara Escarpment from
Queenston Heights near Niagara
Falls to Tobermory at the tip of
the Bruce Peninsula. Some of the
os t breath taking scenery in the
province may be viewed from this
trail which, in places, is situated
250 ft. above the surrounding
countryside. Watler's Falls,
Ball's Falls, Forks of the Credit,
Mount Nemo,Devil's Punchbowl,
Beaver Valley, Halton Falls and
Vile Grotto are names which
being beautiful images to the
minds of those who have gazed
upon these scenio gems from the
Bruce Trail.
The trail is well marked with an
adequate number of overnight
camping areas along its entire
length. A high standard of
41eanliness is maintained on the
trail Members
volunteer their time and energy to
maintain the trail.
Now, the Bruce ii only one
major link in a provincial trail
system. Hopefully, the time is not.
too far 'distant when a hiker will
be able to get onto the Maitland
Trail at Goderich and walk, on
clean, well marked trails, all the
way to Ottawa or. Kingston or
Niagara or Tobermory.
If you are anxious to make a
start at walking Ontario's trails
and are looking to, buy packing
and camping equipment there are
a number of suggestions to keep
in mind. Most, equipment will be
adequate for the needs of the
average hiker. The Canadian
Standards Association does very
well at protecting buyers from
poor quality goods. Remember
though that you get what you pay
for.
For example when buying a
sleeping bag try to anticipate the
season when you will be using it
and be sure that the insulating
value of the bag is sufficient to
keep you warm on the — coldest
night you expect to be using it.
Usually, the warmer the bag, the
higher the cost. You can expect to
pay in excess of $75.00 for the
best bags.
Lightness and strength 'or
durability are the two primary
characteristics to keep in mind
when obtaining any equipment.
Remember, you are carrying all
you need for survival with y ou on
the trail. A loaded pack should
not weigh more than 1/3 of your
body weight. This rule of thumb
will allow you to carry all you
require for 2 or 3 days on a trail
including a tent and an ample
food supply,
One or two man tents weighing
less than 5 pounds are available,
as are light weight cooking
utensils and specially prepared
food packages.
One must for any hiker is a
light compact and easy-to-use
camp stove. These reliable little
tree savers are equal in size to a
48 oz. can and produce enough
heat to cook a delicious meal
much more quickly than- the
traditional camp fire and with less
risk of setting fire to surrounding
vegetation.

Boundaries are the chie f
concern, the proposal 'notes,
saying that it .is difficult to
establish a dividing line between
people in the same community.
"Boundaries have always
presented problems. Wars are
continually waged because of
boundaries.," the report reads.
Seaforth councillor and
chairman of the recreation
committee Charles Campbell said
. the backing from the towns of the
proposal should help when it goes
before county' council.
A compact and Sturdy compass,
a hunting knife and hatchet,
waterproof matches, extra
clothing and a first aid kit are all
necessary items for undertaking
