Every year, I find that there just isn’t enough time to enjoy the autumn colours. The thing that I wonder about the most is that why around this time of year when the trees are the most beautiful that we are usually the busiest. Whether it may be school or work, it seems to be difficult to get a weekend with little precipitation.
After so many years of not having the time for autumn colours, I decided to block off multiple weekends. Despite the poor weather over the last couple of weekends, I still managed to wander north up to Algonquin Park for some hiking. The Highway 60 corridor contains some stunning colour changes.
So many people travel to Canada to enjoy our autumn colour changes, yet so many of us are unable to get out of Toronto (which by the way has pretty poor colour change by comparison to Northern Ontario) and spend time to take in the autumn season which tends to be so short-lived. I still have a few more weekends blocked off for autumn hiking … let’s hope for good weather and colours!
