This
is
a
beautiful
place
to
go
for
a
hike
in
most
seasons.
The
trails
are
hilly
so
I
would
not
rate
them
as
beginner
or
"easy".
I've
been
here
in
the
summer,
fall
and
winter
and
each
time,
it's
a
different
experience
as
the
appearance
of
the
forest
changes
so
much.
Parking
is
limited
in
the
little
lot
on
19th
Avenue
and
there
is
another
lot
off
of
Bathurst,
but
I
haven't
parked
there
before.
I
would
give
this
location
a
5-star
rating
if
the
trails
were
marked
more
clearly.
There
are
some
maps
at
random
locations
but
not
very
frequently
and
the
trail
that
goes
between
Thornton
Bales
and
Joker's
Hill
is
not
marked
and
also
a
bit
challenging.
It
would
be
really
useful
if
there
were
signs
that
pointed
to
the
shortest
route
to
the
parking
areas.
There
are
steep
hills
and
the
trail
goes
through
a
swampy
area
with
a
river.
Depending
on
when
you
go,
it
can
be
very
wet.
I
would
definitely
not
recommend
going
when
conditions
are
icy.
I
recently
went
in
the
winter
and
it
was
serene
and
beautiful.
Make
sure
to
bring
snacks
and
water
and
a
charged
cell
phone
so
you
can
check
a
Google
Map
to
see
where
you
are
and
which
way
you
are
pointed.
Definitely
would
recommend
this
conservation
area.
Beautiful
and
challenging!
Feels
like
a
proper
forest.
