Going with the flow

Totally bored out of our minds Sunday afternoon, D. and I drove 30 minutes to go out to Chelsea, part of the Gatineau park. There was tons of people everywhere and every parking was full, so we drove a little longer and go up close to Dunderosa which is a golf course out there.

Bingo! Empty parking lot right next to it. Off we went~

Went down the forest and a series of steps to find a little bridge and a waterfall.

I walked along the edge while D. decided to be a 12 year old kid, or some type of monkey, and jumped from rock to rock over the flowing water.

What a forest typically looks like around this area of country.

This picture is my favorite~

We were out for a good 2 hours and got a little sunburn even though we were shaded with trees for a good part of our hiking.

Have you been for a walk in the forest lately?
What was it like?

A walk in the park

On the last day of April, we had a warm and sunny day. D and I decided to go out for a walk in one of the many parts of the Gatineau Park.

Due to the cold weather the trees still looked pretty naked and dead. Many of the trails were closed off because the last of the ice and snow from the hills and mountains had been melting off and flooding some areas of the park.

Still we managed to walk a good 5 km and I took a few pictures.

A few sign of Spring : Tiny white flowers among the many dead leaves.

A flooded area.


A random pile of rocks...
