Niagara Escarpment: Mount Nemo

Mount Nemo Conservation Area west of Toronto doesn't possess long trails, but what they have is very rugged, and not for those with weak ankles. A high look out is the main feature of this landscape, which is full of deep crevaces and trees growing out of, and over, fairly inhospitable rocks. It's very good for a day trip, especially when combined with other local conservation areas in the same part of the province, and that's what we did one fall day last year.

Crazy tree:




Some of the scenery belongs in a Harry Potter movie:







Green, purple and white is one of my favourite colour combinations.




So soft.




Heaven... so many trees.






Silver birches and blue sky.




And a curve in the road, always beckoning the walker on.




We indulged in some cloud and tree appreciating.
