[a million monkeys typing] Imagine my surprise when I learned that a local “demonstration forest” has scores of wonderful paths with plenty of placards explaining flora and fauna, as well as a very rough-hewn trail, miles long, that winds up and down through primeval and almost untouched landscape down along the side of a very large lake.

[Bootsnall.com] Ontario, Canada - July 1999: BootsnAll Travel Network: Bruce Trail, an 800 km linear hiking trail, follows the Niagara Escarpment (basically a very long cliff).
