Warm weather is here!!!!

Got the chance to pick up my gears again as I felt the weather outside is just perfect for a walk on a trail or to chase again that elusive sunset light in the horizon. Came upon this park when I passed by from work and seeing that there’s enough time to setup for sunset, I immediately parked on the nearest lot and walked towards G. Ross Lord Park near Dufferin and Finch St.

This extensive parkland, located in the West Don River valley north of Finch Avenue, was created in 1972 primarily for flood control purposes. The 136 hectares of parkland was later made into both passive and active recreational areas. There are three picnic areas located throughout the park, one fire pit and pedestrian/bicycle trails. Special park features include a sports field complex which contains cricket nets, two cricket pitches and three soccer pitches. During the winter season, groomed trails are provided for cross-country skiing.

Park facilities include one winterized fully-accessible washroom, an open sports pavilion with washrooms and changerooms for players, drinking fountains, water taps and public phones. Heavily wooded and wetland areas are ideal habitats for viewing a variety of wildlife.
