I promise to return to Horseshoe Lake later this year. I tried last August, and because of being out of shape, heat that was in the mid-thirties, and another commitment elsewhere in the park, I had to cut my trip short.

I am hoping to walk more here in the city, build my stamina then return to the trail to the lake in September. Now this is a goal worth aiming for!

Here are some photos from that walk 1 year ago in August, and you will see why I want to return:

I used to have this place nearly to myself but now there are lots of people visiting to swim and jump off the cliffs. I have always liked it for the photographic opportunities of excellent reflections that can be very abstract. It is very uneven ground and proves to me that my balance is nowhere near what it used to be. I am thinking that practice in walking and some exercise will help me achieve the goal of retuning here. That is my promise to myself and you are my witnesses!
