Ski Across Gully Lake Wilderness Area
Gully Lake Wilderness Area, Colchester/Pictou Counties
Saturday, February 11, 2012
9:30 AM to 4:00 PM
Join a guide from Nova Scotia Environment for a gorgeous wilderness ski tour crossing of Gully Lake Wilderness Area. This physically demanding 10-12 km adventure is for seasoned cross-country skiers only. We will travel across a succession of hardwood hills and along the valley of Salmon River. Much of the route follows a new hiking trail developed by Cobequid Eco-Trails Society (CE-TS). The 3,810 hectare Gully Lake Wilderness Area protects the largest remaining patch of mature forest in the Pictou-Truro areas and was home to the Hermit of Gully Lake.
Suitable for experienced and fit adults and youth over 16. Participants are responsible for their own transportation and cross-country ski equipment. Please be sure to bring warm clothing, lunch, and water.
Pre-registration is required. Group size is limited.
