Humber Trail Closures
Posted March 23rd, 2009 by bigmikemandel
In case you are interested:
I went for a ride yesterday along the Humber trail and was amazed by the ice overflowing the Humber. In a couple of spots (I was only riding from the lake to Eglinton) the trail is impassable.
Specifically:
Just north of King's Mill Park, the site of the famous CX race, the trail is closed. (To bypass and get back on the trail continue 50 m east turn and left up Old Mill Drive. Veer left and then North along Humbercrest Blvd until St. Marks Road. Go left on St. Marks and down the hill (whee!) go left at the bottom and continue on St. Marks to the end. You will see Magwood Park ahead of you and pick up the trail just beyond there.
There is contruction on the Dundas St bridge and it looks a bit sketchy underneath on the trail. Not a big deal for anyone racing cross.
Further up the trail an underpass, which goes under Scarlett road, is iced over. It is possible to just walk around on the retaining wall right by the river and will likely be thawed pretty soon.
Have fun!



Yeah, I had to pull some
