Old-growth forest walks : 26 hikes in Ontario's greenbelt / Michael Henry.

Summary:

"Old-Growth Forest Walks leads readers to some of southern Ontario's most amazing places: visit 800-year-old cedars on the Niagara Escarpment; a 5000-year-old walking trail in Toronto's west end; oak trees with musket balls buried inside from the war of 1812, and much more. Each of the 26 sites in the book includes an old-growth forest that's a short trip by car, bike, or public transit for millions of people in the GTA, including trails along the Don Valley and Humber River. Detailed maps, beautiful photos and a wealth of information will make you want to take it off the shelf to read. Then you'll be motivated to leave the house and explore, whether it's a day-long hike or a short Sunday stroll. The introduction also contains the clearest, most concise history of Ontario's Greenbelt you're likely to find, and helps answer a question you may not even know you had: what is an old-growth forest?"-- Provided by publisher.
